Title: V bumper attachment
Post by: Buckaroo on 2020-11-05 09:02
I am looking to buy the V bumper attachment for teh front of my 57 Fairlane.  I have not seen any reproductions being offered.  Contact me if you have one to sell.  Thank you

Just drill your existing bump guards per instructions with v-bar. Maybe I didn't understand your post. If you are looking for the v-bar itself, I've only seen one repro and I didnt like it because it was about three times as heavy as an original.  Don't remember who made it.

Just thinking out loud..............I thought they were a Canadian trim piece/accessory. Seems the cars I've seen them on were from there.

It was a regular Ford accessory, dealer installed. I have one in the original Ford box. Believe the part # was B7A 19xxx.

I remember someone recalled it was less than $10 new in 57.

I'll bet they aren't $10 any more given they are made of unobtainium.........

Yeah, think I paid about $100 in the late 1990's. Some epay robber will ask $5k now.

One of these V guards showed up on eBay.  I'm looking forward to whitewalls, too pricey for me.
