    Exact same as on a '72. Here are a few pics of my '72 bumpers.

    I thought 72/73 bumpers had the extra support piece which always rusts out as the crap goes through the hole and settles in the nice cavity the extra support makes.

    I thought these were probably 69 -71 bumpers but you may be right and the extra piece wasn't there until 1973

    I'm about 99% sure that my bumpers are original to my '72. I know the previous two owners going back to 1976. We've talked in great depth and then never mentioned any replacement body parts or accidents. My left side bumper is exactly the same also.

    Yes think you are correct, I searched the data base some more and extra gusset was welded in for 73 year model only so these are 69-72

    Thanks for your help I will search threads for a price

    I'm thinking SWB, since there is no reflector.

    I thought so too but the ends are open like a LWB? (and they look a little short...tough to say without a reference) Was there ever a LWB without reflectors?
    I don't remember seeing one...

    It looks like a reflector is there, and they appear the same as MY69 bumpers.
