I believe I have a front bumper for the coe! A friend of mine told me he found a bumper at the dump today, he has a yard full of items he has brought home from the dump, he is a real salvage master. This blows me away, he found a bumper off of a Case car, only 28,000 made over a production run of 10 years or so ending around 1927. This bumper looks similar to a model A bumper but bigger, 2 piece with a center divider that has a brass emblem that says buckeye deluxe and Indianapolis Ohio. My plan is to restore it and use it on my coe.

What are the odds finding this old rare bumper in a dump in Homer Ak. It is straight as an arrow but quite pitted with rust so I must decide rechrome almost likely a real high cost or powder coat at a lower cost.

I will get pictures
