Can anyone help direct me to someone/place that may have some decent American Turbo Bumpers from and 82-86 with Turbo Trim...in Washington or Portland? I am in Vancouver BC, and they are hard to find up here. I am willing to go across the border for pick-up...

Sorry to post this in here and not the classifieds, but I haven't had any luck with asking in there...

Cheers

I have to tell you I love your ride. I actually take mine into the same shop (when I can't do the job myself) which is how I recognized it... it's a pretty unique looking car. It really looks good. How low is it, anyways?

Not sure of the exact measurment of how low, but the springs dropped her down 2" in the rear, and approx 2.2 in the front.
But alas, this car will be no more....yes I can hear the collective groaning, but it turns out that the Cancer ran far deeper than anyone thought, and the cost to repair was to much......SOOOOO....I have instead picked up a 97% rust free 82 body, have just finished stripping it, and it is in the process of being sand blasted, and totally stipped of it's aged paint.
I am having any remaining rust removed, and having the car painted a dark silver metallic.
We will then take all the parts/interior etc from Veronica, (the old ones name), transfer them onto the new beautiful shell, put in the brand new motor, and I should have one unbelievably beautiful Veronica 2. Granted no more original, no more 600,000kms+, but I will start a new chapter for this one...
Pictures will happen soon...

Cheers,
-Phil

Are you looking to just replace the aluminum Commando bumpers on your car? Or do you specifically want the turbo bumper? The reason I ask is if you want to come to portland, I know of some junk yards that have lots of regular bumpers for later model 240's and their cheap, like 10 bucks for the front and 10 bucks for the back. I don’t see too many turbo bricks in there (although they do pop up now and then). I would be glad to show you around down here. Shoot me an email and I can keep a look out for you. Or if you plan on going to the iPD garage sale, we can hook up then…

P.S. Did you ever get your exhaust system done that you were thinking about a while ago? I stil wouldn't mind hearing it!
