RE: {Chrysler 300} 1964 Chrysler front bumper

This one looks close. Attached are a set with my good side and bad side. What is hard to tell in the photo is how the bad one is bent at the top and even heating it would be tough to get the correct shape.

A good one that has not been bent would be better. Since I have to weld one side no matter what, welding the top and bottom would be a better option. I think the length was about 8 -1/4 inches in length.

James,

Is this what you need?

Hi Mel, No. What I need is the bracket that is spot welded by the factory to the outer end of the front bumper. It is about 6 inches long and perpendicular to the length of the bumper. I suspect that something hit the bumper and pushed this back against the spring steel bracket that you are referring to.

I could try and drill out the three remaining spot welds and straighten the bracket and then weld it back but if I can fine a good one…that would be easier.

I am out of town and when I get back I will post a photo.

I have the bracket from the frame to the bumper that I took off a 1964 300K is that what your are looking for.

Anyone have a VERY bad front bumper that the front passenger side bracket, the one on the bumper not the spring steel one, in good shape? If so, I would like to pay you if you can cut it away from the bumper and ship it to me.

I have one that is bent, and I used by jaws to pry it out and on the last push the lower three spot welds popped. I could heat and pound it to shape but drilling the top three spot welds and then rewelding a good bracket, on the backside with heat cream on the front side, is less time and would have a better outcome.

Thanks, James
