The engine is the original 36hp,.. the plan is a bone stock restoration 🤞

I found some bumper parts. The front is nice. I will send it to the chrome shop. The rear bumper is bent and pitted….I think we may need to buy a couple of rear bumper parts.

I see reverse lights on that rear bumper….which usually means later model.  Minor detail but since Juan is building 100% stock I thought I’d mention…..early Ghia rear bumper blades are about an inch longer than later years (change in ’64 maybe?), so what you have there may stop short of reaching the rear wheel well.

Thanks Pete, for the information,.. 👍,.. I didn`t know it!,.. About the long one, how many inches is it?

Franz, I have a NOS rear left corner (Euro Style) at home, but I dont know if its for short o long part (Pete`s info)
