Man they are proud of these. Cheapest ones I could find on eBay. Save a little. Didn't realize how much they go for tho.

I'll offer a set to the thread starter first, 79Scott. I just bought a truck with a set and they will be coming off. Let me know if you're interested and I will remove them tonight and take pics.
If you pass I'll offer them to WebMonkey...

How does $50 plus shipping sound? I can get a prince on shipping before you decide if you'd like.

YES, if the OP passes, you have a deal with me.

I paid $50 for mine too, but I'll need to re-plate them once I paint my truck. So I'm sure due to California pricing I'll be about the same cost as new.

I'm surprised that they still chrome plate parts in the people's republic of Commie-fornia

I don't want to know how much they want for a pushbar if the bumper thingies are that much!

 

[79Scott]

Thanks Scott I appreciate the offer! I think mine are ok. Let webmonkey grab 'em up.

 

[Scott91370]

Will do. WebMonkey I'll take some pics and send them over. I'll try this evening.

Some places make repros of the only school push bar

Like who? I've looked but I guess not that good. I want one for my Suburban.

Years ago I had motorcycle parts chrome dipped. Shocks, oil lines, 2 side covers and a handful of other stuff for $75.

That was 20 years ago but, **** that's a lot of kizash! You can buy a brand new one from Lmc for half that.

If no one else comes up with a link I will look again. It's been 6 months or so since I found them.

I guess I was wrong. This is the site I saw before. I didn't look close enough and realize that it came on top of a custom bumper. It doesn't look like just the push bar is an option to buy? Who knows , it's a custom place them may make just the push bar for you if you inquire.

I bought a chrome one (like the black one in the middle) for $60 or so in the mid 90's.
This is getting ridiculous.

That's just the price of custom fan, plus shipping plus demand.


I found one in a junkyard near my farm that I was going to get, and I did but for some reason it didn't fit my truck. I think the bumper profile was different? I think it was off a mid 70s or late 70s. Which is weird since I thought all the mounts and bumpers were the same? I know the guy, I pulled it, tried to make it fit, it didn't so I took it back.
