Spare Chevelle bumpers

[408Chevelle]

Santa brought me some nice shiny bumpers for the Chevelle today. I'm wanting to use the old ones for a project, but I don't know what to do with them yet. I've thought about wiring the parking lights and just hanging it on the wall, but I'm sure some of you have some cool ideas. What would y'all do?

Here are some pics to give you a visual.

Sell them! If I could get used bumpers like yours I would be pretty happy.

Yeah me too!

They look better in the pictures than they really are. With some deep scratches filled and rechroming they would be great, but that's more work than I was wanting to do right now. If nothing else I'll store these in the shop if I ever decide to rechrome them.

Not a bad idea. I would also bet that the original metal is better than the repros.

Nice ride.

I had mine rechromed for my GTO last winter. There is a repro front available, but not the rear. I had originals that fit the car very well, so I decided to have thme done (turned out great). I've seen a few repro fronts installed on '66 GTOs that didn't fit well.

I hope the Chevelle repros are better than the GTO repro.
