1965 - 1976 Cadillac Rear Bumpers

[Paul Steinberg]

I am starting to catalog the rear bumpers from the 1965 through the 1976 Model year Cadillac Commercial Chassis cars. I have learned so far that even though the face of the bumper is almost the same, there are differences between the body builders, and in some cases between different models of the cars. Also, how the bumper mounts to the frame varies between certain years, so even though a bumper might look the same on the front side or face, it might not be the same on the backside. For this reason, I am asking that people email me a close up picture of their cars rear bumper, along with the details about the car... I.E. Hearse, Combination, Ambulance, Flower Car, Limousine. Please PM me for the email address. Once I have enough data, I will be presenting a picture thread showing the various configurations.

Thanks Paul

Here is a scan from the 1973 Superior parts catalog covering Cadillac. Items 1 through 12 will be the same across the board for 1971-1973 Superior, Miller-Meteor and S&S Cadillac chassis cars. Items 13 through 17 are Superior specific.
