Amazon Front & Rear Bumpers, And Towbar

222s · May 9th, 2010, 22:00

Both are far from perfect, but nor are they skip fodder.

Front: vile chrome (peeling off - I reckon it's due to a bad attempt at rechroming), but the actual steel is good - backs are not pitted (if they were, I'd have taken it straight to the dump). Maybe worth rechroming, or possibly just painting, as a budget bumper for a working car?

Rear: haven't seen it for a while, but will extract it later this week. From memory, the corners aren't great, but the centre is ok, & has passable chrome. Comes with a towbar (the type that bolts through the bumper), which could probably do with being sandblasted.

No overriders or irons on either. How does £20 each sound?

Collection only (London SW17), or can bring to Southern 120 / BKV at the weekend.

Hi Chris
Did you get my PM reply to yours? I'm not sure where my 'sent PMs' are.
Looking to meet for The Ace tomorrow if the sun is kind to us.
Cheers, Terry

Hi, do you have a towbar for an Amazon Estate for sale? Regards Martin

It was previously on my estate, but it should fit both the saloon & estate, rather than being estate specific, as it bolts on to the body via the bumper mounting brackets, using the bolts that also hold the bumper irons.

where abouts in london are you interested in the front bumper will it fit an estate

I'm in Tooting. Bumper blades are the same irrelevant of body style (only difference between saloon & estate is the rear overriders).

Managed to extract the rear bumper & towbar from the garden shed, so I'll try to take some pics of both bumpers tomorrow.

Unfortunately my website is down at the moment so can't host photos. Hopefully it should be back online by the end of the weekend though, and I'll be taking these along to the Southern 120 / BKV this Sunday, so if they haven't found a new home there, I'll post the pics up.

However I want these out of the way sooner rather than later, and would rather not take them to the dump, as I'm sure that they would be of use so someone, especially the towbar.
