He is tearing down a chromeing place that has been in business for 30+ years. Being a 52 chrome front bumper is suspect, but has anybody seen a bumper stamped Chevrolet? His whole story seems a little off, but he will give me the bumper. I haven't seen it yet, but just thought I would ask if anyone knows of a bumper being stamped Chevrolet. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,269 |
Nope - first time I have heard of it for 47-55 (neither a GM original bumper nor an after market bumper).

However the neighbor made it sound like it was stamped on the front surface. As I mentioned in my first post he is tearing down a place that did chromeing. So it is possible it is a custom piece. If and when I see it I will update everyone. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 1,518 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 1,518 | This was on my rear bumper of my 53.
