Those are killer deals. Thanks Oscar.

Those prices are super super great. If you are thinking of doing a backdate or of your bumpers are trashed, this is the deal you have been waiting for. Oscar is a 100% class act and he is always giving to this community.

Oscar,

I'm still on the hunt for a Concours worthy OEM 73-74 chrome front bumper with tit & license plate holes, & with the 4 back braces - i.e: the factory original with 2 braces to mount + 2 behind the tits (as opposed to a drilled out 70-72 front one with only 2 back braces).

Please contact me if you ever get one. TIA

Cheers!
Tom

FYI - for those looking at these....

Unless you're backdating or don't care - the MY applications are:

The 1st set are 70-71 or 71.5 (front is 70-72 & square corner rear is 70-71 or 71.5)

The rounded corner rear are 71.5 or 72 to 73 - then in 74 rear tits were added to the rounder corner type.

All "Tit" bumpers came from the factory with a welded on extra pair of back braces (total of 4 per end), so that the 3 mph resistance was achieved with the "tits" - but cheapo body shops would just drill the non-braced ones & bolt on the tits - which were pretty useless.

914s were "titless" (no black "rubber" bumper guards) 70-72 MY, then front tits only in 73, then front & rear in 74, then black impact bumpers (BUBS) 75-76, with the sharp angle rear bumper license plate cut-out in 70-71 or 71.5 only, then switching to rounded corner (i.e.: the upper corners L & R of the rear bumper license plate recess or setback).

If you're not picky or just backdating, then the above doesn't matter!

Cheers!
Tom

Such a deal! Oscars bumpers are Top Notch. I love the bumpers he did for me. Now if we could just get Oscar to do a Group Buy for Lug Nuts.

Posted by: jim_hoyland Aug 17 2020, 09:25 PM

Thanks for the heads up

Posted by: Tdskip Aug 17 2020, 09:27 PM

If any of you SOCal guys have decent 73-74 bumpers you are replacing for Oscars better ones let me know (please).

Posted by: Robarabian Aug 20 2020, 01:43 PM

Oscar, I need a front and a rear, no bumper tits if you have them. I can come pick em up since im an hour or so away..

Posted by: ValcoOscar Aug 20 2020, 02:43 PM

Rob-

I got your PM. Thank you...

I have bumpers I'm picking up from chrome any day for a few local members and a set for back East. After that I'm committed to do a multi set special run for a mid-west member.

THEN, I'll be doing some for myself....Can you wait a little? My chrome shop is super slow these days.

LMK,

Oscar

Posted by: Robarabian Aug 20 2020, 03:41 PM

Absolutely.. just let me know when.... Good to go for a front and a rear. Thanks Oscar!!

Posted by: Montreal914 Aug 20 2020, 11:43 PM

WOW!

Beautiful bumpers and amazing deals!!!

Posted by: 9won4 Aug 21 2020, 03:11 PM

Bummer Oscar. I thought I was on the list and was going to be considered next in line from that previous post several weeks ago. Messaged you and got no reply.

Posted by: ValcoOscar Aug 21 2020, 03:50 PM

I do have one for you in process but I'm waiting to get it my hands (back from chrome) before I commit.

Oscar

Posted by: 9won4 Aug 21 2020, 04:05 PM

Thank you!

Posted by: IronHillRestorations Aug 21 2020, 04:28 PM

FWIW, I use "triangular inset" to describe early, and "curved inset" for later

Great prices!!

Posted by: Arno914 Aug 24 2020, 09:15 AM

Hi there,

I have a late ´71-4 with curved rear bumpers. Is there any information on when they switched from "square" to "curved" in the ´71 model year? Like the VIN?

I would like to know if my car is original or if the bumpers have been changed.

Thanks for your input.

I am looking for a good but not pristine front chrome bumper with two brackets . AJ in Albuquerque

Posted by: IronHillRestorations Aug 26 2020, 05:53 AM

Probably not. Some parts have VIN or engine numbers listed in the factory parts manual (up to chassis #XX, or engine #XX) bumpers are not.

Posted by: Art jarvis Aug 26 2020, 02:58 PM

Oscar, I’d like an early front chrome bumper ( two brackets). Good but not necessarily perfect. Art. ABQ
