What would be a historically / authentic replacement bumper to have mounted on the rear? I understand that in 1954, regulations may not have required a proper rear bumper.
thanks

The service body manufacturer could have installed one if needed, like the back step on a fire truck. Since they were all custon made whatever you make will be right...find an old school bus and use that! Mike B  | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | .
