US: Euro Bumpers, exhaust parts
Posted: Sat May 16, 2026 21:55
Know this may be a LONG shot...but assembling parts for my 74 Elite in advance of having it in my garage.
1. My US spec bumpers are in bad shape. Thinking of ways of saving them but thinking someone (know it is a long shot) that may have parted out a car or two that either had useable US bumpers, or, even better, a set of euro spec bumpers that are taking space on the shelf that they'd be willing to part with. Cash in hand.
2. Looking for exhaust sections or suggestions as to how folks have solved the rear over-the-axle pipes and rear cans. Mine are seriously rusted, and there are pinholes developing in the cans. I know I can patch and so forth, but, they will have to be replaced at some point. What are people on this side of the pond doing (other than importing bulky items from the mother ship)? Again, if there is a car that's been broken up and has useable bits, I'd be an interested party.
Thanks in advance.
