Title: 1967 Fiberglass Rear Bumper
Post by: ceswert on December 11, 2012, 10:40:27 AM

What is a fiberglass bumper? Was this a Shelby modification? Was this an internal part that fit within the metal bumper?

  A aftermarket part to save weight on a track car. Not something used by Shelby. I think they first surfaced in the early to mid 70's.
