Wanted 1968 Front Bumper
I'm looking for a real nice front bumper for my 68. Should have nice chrome, no dings, dents, or twists. If possible nice original GM chrome plating. Please let me know what you have with price and pictures. Thanks rich

The early 68 front bumper only has one half circle cutout on each side of the underside. It was an access point for something ( I forget at the moment). Later bumpers in 68 and up had several on each side to give access to the production change that I cannot seem to remember ( shields?).
OP, an April build 68 would likely have the later style bumper, which is much more common, and reproduced. The early version is real hard to find and not reproduced to my knowledge.
