I'm stripping down the car and keeping what is reusable. I have no idea what the PO was using for a front bumper. Before I recycle it, I'd like to know if anyone recognizes what this went to in case I should offer it for free. I'm trying to break the pack rat syndrome of keeping every rusted part that can't be saved or Frankenstein piece to pass on to my kids in 50 years.
 Thanks, DaveB |

75/76 Impala - OK, its scrap metal. If someone wants is, send me a note otherwise in a few weeks I'm making a scrap drop off.
Thanks, DaveB |

I know this is not a 914 75/76 bumper bracket. There are no markings, numbers or anything to give me clue other than I can tell it's an inside brace. I swear the PO was going to epoxy the rubber boot on this and call it day. Here are some additional pictures. I am going to take this the recycle yard unless someone wants it.
