Charlie, this is the big, heavy one piece bumper with the added on pieces, too. With the irons I'd say it was dang close to 100 lbs.!!!
34-30, I'll use some really high strength matte that I have left over from the Merc's, really light weight and super strong, used to use it on the floorboards and federwells building 'glass cars.... the 'glass bumper and it's attaching hardware will come in under 5 lbs. Adding in everything else that's being removed and replaced with lighter bracing (1" 6061 T-6 aluminum tubing) from the firewall forward the weight reduction will be around 300+ lbs. Still shooting for 2500 lbs. or less wet weight with the car ready to fire!!
PS--Anybody have any use for a '57 Chevy front bumper narrowed up about 1 1/2"???? The purists sure do hate it!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
