Totally non-motorcycle related.
I'm looking to buy a bumper for an old car that I have from a seller in Bennington, Vermont. (not close to me here in Michigan).
I'm asking for someone to just go and look at the part and verify that it's in good condition (rechromed) as the seller states. She has 2 for sale.
I'll work out the purchase and shipping with the seller if it is as claimed.
If you can help me out, please PM or email me using the buttons below.
Here are a couple of snaps of the car:
TIA,
J.R. |

Sweet! They don't build'em like that now days... no plastic in that baby. Guessing the weight at 4500 lb's |

Three things:
1. Taylor (corrected) has agreed to go look at the part I need, thank-you very much!
2. It's a '62. Was formally Al Bergler's push-start car for his dragsters.
3. Yes, it comes in at about 4500 pounds. The 4 speed transmission is all cast iron! No plastic except for the steering wheel, the distributor cap & rotor. (That I've found).
This car really takes me back. |

J.R. I hope you are speaking of another Terry, as I am a long ways from Bennington, Vermont. |

If your first-person contact falls through I could probably squeak a trip down before Xmas, shoot me a pm if you find yourself in need. I'd be happy to check it out and text you a bunch of pics while on site. |

Thank-you. Taylor has already checked it out and I'm waiting for the seller to complete the deal. |
