Default '74 bumper rub strips

Can anyone help me out? I'm looking for front and rear bumper rub strips for the '74 Ventura/GTO. Must be in NOS to great shape. If I can't find the rub strips, will also consider excellent non-strip bumpers for same car.
Thanks

Didn't the non-strip bumpers just have the chrome (or stainless?)-headed carriage bolts inserted in the holes?

I don't know that they all did. I got a used bumper for my 74 one time that didn't have the rub strip and didn't have the holes either. I drilled the holes and added the strip from my old bumper.

I have, however seen some that you describe also.

Hey Ric,
I may have what you're looking for. I have to check on the shape. I know the bumper had the little bumper protectors on it. Is that the style you need??? JOHN

Hi John, I was searching parts for a friend. He has finished his car, so I no longer need the strips. Thanks for offering!

John, the '74 GTO I was putting the word out on was for Randy Hosler. The car was actually finished early last year and did get out to several local Detroit-area shows. It was an Ebay purchase out of Arizona and restored/modified by the technicians at his dealership in Clarkston. Randy has a modest little collection of Pontiacs, including a '72 LeMans Sport convertible with a 455/auto. Still hoping to get my '74 completed and on the road sometime in the near future. This summer would be nice! Just need to make room in my shop to get to it.
