    I took off the rear bumper of my 74 Maverick to get it ready to paint car. The part behind the bumper has rusted out at the brackets. Is there any of these available and what are they called. I might be able to repair this one if needed.

    I call it the inner bumper, they can be hard to find in good shape, even in the south.

    I'll soon be removing a set of 75 Comet bumpers from a pretty nice car I'm parting out. Doubt you're ever around here though.

    I'm parting out my 74 mav, I'll take a look tomorrow to see what kind of condition they are in. You can have them for the cost of shipping.

    They are pretty heavy, I wouldn't want to see the shipping from Alaska...
