A different way to do a small bumper swap

I just saw this on AutoTrader Classics, I didn't realize what was wrong at first but check it out for yourself.

 

Hmmm...don't think I like that too much.

 

Mmmm, NO.

 

i like it

 

yikes...makes me feel like my hat is on backwards with a 59 Fifty sticky on the brim...

 

It looks ok..... but it looks like a waist of time when you could make it right.

 

Just goes with the current trend of wearing your pants halfway down your ass.

 

Wrong bumper

It raises the question .. "why" ...There are enough correct bumpers out there. Cometized

 

Looks like a truck with a body lift. When I did my conversion I just cut the qtr extensions off and mounted the bumper correctly.

 

If you just bought the car and it had new paint .This would be the cheapest way to
get a small bumper without trying to match paint .think about it for a minute ,,
I know it is not the right way but they kinda got the look they was going for

 

i think your suppose to lower your car not the bumper lol

 

Ya but they are selling this car, a little more work to do it right would go a long way. they already have a good bumper, the corner pieces and bumper fillers cant be that hard to get. and it has a 73 front bumper.

Really its not a bad car for the $4000 asking price. Bucket seats, floor shift, v8, black interior.

Am I seeing things? Is that a 66 Mustang bumper?

 

nope, it's a '73 bumper with guards and the rub strip

 

Oh I completely agree but they are probably flipping the car and bet they thought it would sell better with smaller bumpers ,,and the flip rule is the most amount of money for the lease amount of investment .
just a guess
