Was there a rear bumper to compliment this front bumper?

Image

I've not had a rear bumper on my '75 since I've owned it, and the last owner, who took it off, said it was a big nasty heavy steel thing...not a little chrome dealio like this.

I'd like a rear bumper to match this.

Other than a steel step bumper there was one like what this E Bay truck has. But these are very rare and hard to find any more.

I'll have to keep a watchful eye at the junkyard...

That's exactly what I want!

You should send that front bumper to me, since I'm in the opposite situation as you. I have the matching rear bumper but not the front. :)

Nice find. I've been keeping an eye on the rear end of cars around here in search of something that compliments the lines of the luv.

I found a rear bumper on a parts truck when I built my truck. The guy would not sell it so I bought the whole truck. Glad I did, I have not been able to find another one.

These are very hard to find (like what isnt for a LUV?? :roll: ). I found one at a junkyard in 1986 and took it off when I had my roll pan made in 1988. So it has been sitting at my dads house for 23 years now! 8O

Sorry, before anyone asks, it is not for sale, it will be going back on my truck once my life gets out of the suck phase and I can actuall rebuild the truck and have it rechromed.
