Anyone know where I could find bumpers? Could you find a similar bumper from an older truck or car and bolt it on somehow? What about the weather stripping for the windows? And Chrome trim around the back window, the straight price along the bottom of the back window.

Complete front clip, suspension, interior parts, doors, trunk lid, bumpers, etc. I have a '74 Ranchero, a '75 GTS, and some extra parts off a '74 I parted long ago. Let me know, bring a truck, tools and come by on a weekend.

That sounds great, where are you at in Tennessee? What are you asking for the bumpers? They in good shape? Mine are shot. Sounds good to me, it would be cool just seeing your cars.

Other than the bumpers, all the weather stripping is available new from Dearborn Classic, auto krafters or John Carpeter Reproductions (the company that makes most of them.

what about the weather-stripping for the side windows?  the strip that the window rolls into, right under the drip rail trim?

Isn't that the same thing? Yeah, mine seem to be peaking some, so will replacing it around there stop it?

cant find them on their site.  i think they are called roof rail seals?  they have them for the 72-76 torino fastback but not the formal roof.  and the fastback ones specifically say that they will NOT fit a formal.
