1972 Chevy El Camino - El Cheapo, Part 4
|
For the front bumper, we again went with Harwood fiberglass. It weighs just 3--4 pounds! Gonzalez painted it straight PPG aluminum toner (DMD 690) with a clearcoat, which turned out to be the perfect color. We mounted the bumper with the stock brackets--cleaned and painted Eastwood black--by first installing the brackets, then marking the holes from the backside so the bumper could be drilled. We mounted it with an OPG bumper--bolt kit that also had enough pieces to do the rear bumper. The Harwood bumper was $149, and Gonzalez didn’t charge extra to paint it, so it’s a deal.
