    O.K folks .here is the story ,most of you all know that i was responsible for the the two core two row and the new two core three row aluminum rads from Cid Martin and Champion Cooling. Im now working on new chrome bumbers for our cars with Cid Martin of Champion Cooling . We are trying to get these bumper manufactured in Costa Mesa California for a good price ,if this cant be done ,then they will be made in China. If they are made in China the quality contol will be done by Cid Martin ,the steel for bumpers will be as good as original and chrome will be great or it will NOT be acceptable. The price will be as good or better than the cost of a rechrome, accept it will be a new product. I need to know how many of our members would be interestewd in new bumpers and how many would you want IF THE PRICE IS RIGHT. Please leave a rooling count of how many sets (front and rear). I am also looking for a member here that lives close to Costa Mesa California ,this is were Cid Martins warehouse is. I would like if a member that lives close to his warehouse could drop off a straight set ,rusty dosent matter as a proto type ,you will be taken care off for your effort. PM me if you can help ,if i cant find anyone in 1 week ,i will ship my mint front and rear bumpers from my racecar to get this done . cheers Jimmy Just bumpers ,No support brackets, If there needed i could work on this to.

    I'm interested, but the cost would have to be less than to rechrome/straighten my old ones

    I don't think the rolling counts ever work. How about posting this as a poll. That should keep track of how many might possibly get sold.

    I believe we our shooting for a min 200 front and 200 rear bumper on the first run .We will then think this over with the response to the first run . Im sure that if all are not sold on this site then ebay and whole sale distributors. I think this is the beginning of something good for our cars . IF A POLL WANTS TO BE STARTED that would be great but not by me as my PC skills arnt there yet , cheers Jimmy

    2 fronts and one rear for me.

    So, the rolling count would be... 7front/6rear
