I picked up a set of 95 LSC bumpers from Paul Van two weeks ago.

Just started sanding them down the other day it was nice out, and today it turned out to be in the mid 80s!! so I figured I would spend my day off outside and finish sanding..in between I had to take a break and go for a cruise since it was so damn nice out..and of course took a few pics of the mark while I was at it.

No limit, Gman has some side pieces in opalescent that he can get form the junk yard. That will at least get you half way.
 
Everytime I see your car it makes me want to put my chrome 20 spokes on. 1 more week.


sigh..

You and me both and those were my color too, I think. He's the one I bought the extra grille from. Wished I had caught those when he posted them.

Yeah I made sure to jump on it quick as I'm sure someone else would have gotten to it first..I'm lucky he listed it the way he did, his title didn't include anything mentioning lsc bumpers so I doubt that many people looked. The bumpers are actually ivory and were off a 95 surprisingly..still had the vin sticker on both.

Someday hopefully..good eye on the year, its my dad's, he's owned it since 1973 so he probably will never part with it..and under the other car cover is a 67 corvette as well..I grew up around these cars..hence why I'm a chevy guy as well lol.
 
I used to hang out at classic Corvettes in Ham lake, MN wile in high school.
My buddys dad owned the place then sold it to one of my other buddys then he failed and gave it back.

I already have the sides, I just need front and rear bumpers. Before it starts getting too hot, I'll go check my local yards (not many) and see what they have.

I must have missed the title completely but I did catch the grille he listed and bought it right then just to keep it stashed back. It looked almost like a NIB grille. If I had caught the bumpers as fast as I caught the grille, yeah, I would have snagged them. In the pics, they kinda look more white so that's why I thought they were the same color as mine. You have them looking good.

Actually its the original rear end from the 62, ironically it was replaced by a 9in. Ford out of his friends funny car back in the mid 70s, Detroit locker and 4:10s with a th400 and a 406 small block..once housed 5:14s when it had a 4 speed..

Here's a slideshow I put together of it a while back..some may find it interesting
