help with front bumper assembly, Scamp

[DotsDart]

Looking for good front bumper assembly that will fit this nose, (see pic's). I actually have a 1974 Dodge Dart, but a few years back (like 5 or 6 ) I decided I did not like the pointy header panel and grill, and swapped over a Plymouth Scamp nose. I had the entire nose, but someone broke into our storage unit a few years back and stole everything. I used all the sheet metal so far, but still do not have the front bumper. I can't even be sure now what year the donor car was, please help me!

Bumpers that fit that nose will range from 1973 through 1976 Dusters and Scamps. What I'm not sure about is whether or not it accepts the '73-'74 bumpers that use "regular" brackets or '74-'76 bumpers that use "shock absorber" brackets.

It's been a while since I've looked at my Dart Sport without bumpers, so I'm not 100% sure which type your chassis will readily accept. But either can be installed with modifications. Just gotta get the bumper and brackets as a set because the bumpers will not interchange on the brackets. The later ones will need filler pieces because they will stick out further from the grille and the assemblies weigh more.

I'll go out on a limb and say early style. Check the dash VIN if original to see if it's a '73 chassis. I believe Scamps used the later bumpers in '75 while Dusters didn't start using the later fronts till '75. But if it is a '74 Swinger/Custom, odds are it takes the later version.
