an area of limited knowledge for me as i always have step bumpers.

anyway i know some of these are rare and bring big $ on e-bay so i want to make sure i dont get rid of those type to the crusher.

so if someone could post pics of the different rear bumper brackets used from 61-66 i would greatly appreciate it.thanks.

they are the brakets for the painted or chrome rear bumpers only i have seen these go for as much as 150 bucks on ebay i sold a set that were useable not in bad snape but not great nether got 35.00 out of them+ shipping so if you have got some of these that are in great condition you will get some good money out of them they are one of the faster sellers and if you got any of the old style radios that are working thay bring big money also i got 80.00$ out of the one i had

i parted out a hole truck on ebay payed 568.oo for it and ended up geting over 1200.00 out of it there is some big money to be maid just on parts for these trucks .jim

Speaking of rear bumpers, will a step bumper off a '69 bolt up to a '65?
Be nice to know before I tackle those old bolts and the same guestion for a front bumper.
My '69 parts truck has a pretty straight chrome front I would like to use aswell.

My 65 stepside originally came with a diamond plate wrap around step bumper. It was a rear deck for a stepside. I should have held on to it but its gone.I have never seen another one like it. It used stock brackets. The best of a step bumper.
