Try eBay.....[sm=goodidea.gif], or just bite the bullit and pony up the dough at any parts house such as Mustangs Plus, or Dallas Mustang or any one of the hundred on the internet.

Texas Mustang has reproduction chrome bumpers for 86.95. Sounds reasonable enough to me. http://www.Texasmustang.com

um, that is for a 1969-1970 For Mustang, not a SHELBY Mustang, the 69-70 Shelbys looked more like a 1971-73 Mustang, and the only person I know selling the parts is Tony D. Branda, and he wants major coin for them



Only the 1969 Shelby De Mexico's had stock bumpers on a Shelby made for the street after 1966



I know these cars rather well, they were coupes with fiberglass panels extending back to make it look more like a fastback, and they had the quarter panel ornaments removed




306 1969 Shelby De Mexico's were built, and a few had stock Ford tail lamps...I only know of 11 that still exist. The red one pictured used to belong to Don Chambers of Paramount, CA. Don sold the car to an unknown collector a few years ago. The car has a 351 Windsor, a FMX, a deluxe interrior and at the time, 20,000 miles.

because up until about 5-10 years ago, nobody cared about them and to swap over the nose costs a lot of money...it is cheaper to make a BOSS clone....
