I know Im not the only one waiting for a repro part. Im seeing rechromed ones for sale on ebay for 700 bucks plus, a total ripoff if you ask me.

I was waiting for one, but once I realized it probably isn't going to happen for a while, I bought one from Bumper Boys. It is pretty rough, but the chrome looks good. It is probably not going to last for long if it gets wet much. On these rechromes, you really need to be able to look at it before you take it. They gave me a "good deal" but the core had been through h3ll and back. The back of the bumper isn't even chromed, it is painted silver. I had to have it though, my car had a tempest/lemans rear bumper so I had no core to begin with.

I tried to go on their website but it wasnt working for some reason. Do you remember what you paid for it?

What is the latest on the 67 GTO rear bumpers. I have a good core but might opt for a repop for a car I will be selling?

I just got off the phone with one of the principals in this deal. I told him that the 67 GTO rear bumper needs to go to the top of the list. We will see and I will keep you informed.

Dynacorn's site shows it as available and the Paddock has it listed in their on line catalog. The price is 299.00 I think the part # is 1571A. Has anyone seen one yet?

Count me in for one!
If I could get a pair of full quarters and a rear bumper, my GTO will be set!

Talked to Dynacorp and the guy there said the bumpers are available but they only have them at their warehouse in PA and it would cost another 100 bucks to drop ship it to Cal. He wouldnt give me a price over the phone, I have to go through one of their dealers, Im guessing it will be around 500 bucks.

If that is the case, then I guess we won't be the first on the market with them. Anyway, $100 is way to much to ship a bumper. I have been getting bumpers shiped to me for the mid 20 to mid 30 dollar range. You can actually ship them through the post office, but Fed EX, UPS and DHL are also reasonable. I would call BS on the shipping if they really wanted to sell you one.
