    Does anyone know of where to go to repair bumpers in the southern California area ? My 1959 Ford Thunderbird front bumper was used to push something out of a ditch...I think.

    Also if I remove the 2 upright bumpers horns, do I weld up the holes ? or what ?

    Most chrome shops will straighten a bumper.
     
  3. The chrome shop is a good answer.

    And yes you either weld up the holes or put bolts in them. Sometimes the uprights are bolted to a bumper brackes. I don't recall on the thunder hawk.
