Guest Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I built one of these around three years ago to practice converting the '66 wagon,but never have built a wagon yet. I swapped the entire front clip on my conversion which made for very little body work. Mine still has the '66 rear bumper. Someday I may get around to widening the '67 bumper and replacing it. Are you going to paint the bumpers or rechrome them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
