    From what I remember they fit width wise but I cant remember if they have the same basic front end shape...my friend has a front bumper from a '67 that Im thinking about getting, hes giving it to me for free, along with a rear bumper...do these bumpers look alright? Or has anyone not seen it done before? I can fabricate brackets easily enough and shorten the bumpers if needed...just wondering if anyone else knows whether this works or not before I go driving 70 miles for no reason.

    I can compare pics online but its not the same as actual physical comparison.

    They don't fit, or we'd all be using them. It's alot cheaper to buy new Mustang bumpers, than having Maverick ones rechromed.

    Interesting. I don't want to try it myself, but did you take any pics? I'd be curious to see what it looked like.
