Default Front Bumper Brackets.

My 65 vette came with all of the hardware and bumpers for the rear, but nothing for the front. I bought a used set of front bumpers from a forum member, but I need all the hardware now. Are all the bumper brackets pretty much the same or does one of the parts places carry a more correct/better version?

Thanks,
58n65

65 67 are the same, some of the 63 64 parts will fit but not the 2 pcs through the grill. Use any suppler if you don't care about the original markings on them.

Thanks!!! I'm not worried about original markings. It's definitely not a number matching car.

Thanks,

I have ave a set of 65-67 front brackets that came with my 63 and didn't work. They are brand new. If interested in purchase, I would like to sell them. Let me know.
