Re: Dealer engraved rear bumper??

Yeah,all bumpers were an option on pickups back then. Here in Maryland it wasn't until the '70s that trucks were even inspected. I remember if you had a window van,you could take all the seats out,take a picture,and register it as a truck to get around inspection. I also remember a lot of trucks running around with no rear bumpers,especially the first Japanese trucks I saw. Bumpers were more of an afterthought on them
