What area are you in? I think I might have a spare bumper, just need to check what model it?s for.

I need to go up to my storage garage to check. I'm going up there Tuesday so I'll let you know what bumpers I have then.

I do have a rear bumper, I'm not sure which year it's off. the mounts are different to my 75.

I'll post some pictures of the mounts.

Here is a photo of the mounts for the bumper I have. The mount on my 75 sedan and my wagon are different, like a longer L shape where they connect to the bumper

For reference, here are the mounts from the bumpers on my other Avengers, note there are 2 bolt holes on the bumper side, they also don't have that end bracket on them.

Can you check your bumper and see what mount it has.

Also another option is there are a few Avengers at Horopito, A.K.A Smash Palace, which is down your way. A few of them still have their bumpers, that's where I got my bumper brackets from
