Re: Dealer engraved rear bumper??
My late uncle was the Chevrolet dealer in Robstown, Texas. Jennings Chevrolet was the dealership. Robstown is a farming community and when those bumpers were popular most of the people driving trucks where farmers or businesses who appreciated a substantial step bumper. He would order most trucks without rear bumpers (IIRC) and those were dealer installed items.
Until the mid 80's we had an old '69 on the farm with a bumper from his dealership; but it was sold into Mexico at some point in time. Now that I have another '69 I plan to make a visit to some junkyards in the Robstown/Corpus Christi area in the hopes of finding a bumper stamped "Jennings Chevrolet".
