Bumpers & Seat Squabs

[jimbolya]

Anyone got any bumper / bits in good nick? and cheap? (or know of someone that re-chromes for pennies?

After some oxblood seat squabs aswell, preferably cheap again, but hopefully not split as mine have succumbed to that fate...

I do have limited spares to offer in exchange = carbs, brake servo, 2 x wheels, erm, couple of 122s badges, a later type rev counter (untested, but believed to be working) erm, chrome side trim for a four door, sill cappings, nose moulding etc, heater intake grill. probs more...

I've got a pretty good spare front overrider (can't remember which side though but can check tomorrow), and a rear centre section that's decent enough for an everyday car. Also various other bumper sections (probably enough for both front & rear without overriders) but they're not that great....

Let me know if any of that is of interest

certainly is! everyday car is certainly what mine is...when you say...not great, is that as in when people say "not concours" or as in "holey"

I pretty much need new rear quarters and overriders, and new front everything.

would be great if you could have a look and give an idea of price or swappages?

The following is all from memory, as it's all stored in various places....

1) The front overrider is pretty good. Would probably be slightly dull compared to brand new chrome though. This is the only overrider.

2) Pair of front bumpers - one with flaking / rusty chrome but might be rechromable. Other with faded / tatty chrome centre but very skanky corners (one badly holed, other not far behind....)

3) Rear bumper - one corner dented, other side looks like a hole is waiting to erupt. Centre has a towbar bolted through (towbar bracket still there too). Chrome on centre presentable, but sides are tatty.

4) Another uncut rear centre - chrome presentable but has a hole where it would be hidden by an overrider.

Depending on why you need replacement bumpers, some of the above parts might be of use, some might not. For example, if you're replacing a set of intact but scruffy bumpers, then probably only the overrider would be of use.

cool, sounds ok, I'll try taking a picture of mine and you can see what i'm looking for... I just want to get it up to reasonable presentable standard, at the moment, its not.

thanks for having a think about them.
