Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar

[turbomurr]

I'm located in Ontario, if anyone has a rear rebar or even a bumper assembly (ES or Shelby preferred if it's complete assembly) I'd be willing to travel up to a couple hundred miles to get one that is still solid. Thanks ,

go to napa
buy a rebar for a dodge shadow

bring the brand new rebar home

flip bumper rebar over so the side with the bolt holes to mount to the impact absorbers faces up

now note the holes for the absorbers - there should only be 2 drilled in each side of the rebar

and when you check your car you'll find the drilled the opposite two bolt positions

so now you drill the other bolt positions and install

rear shadow rebar is the same stamping as a daytona one
- cept they punch out the opposite sets of bolt holes

When you sat "rebar" is this the collapsing member that goes from the bumper to the body?

[Dr. Johny Dodge]

rebar is the actual bumper under the plastic skin
impact absorbers are the mounts that attach it to the car and collapse when hit

Try dedicated body parts suppliers.

try cross canada
I think they supplied the rebar to napa

[turbomurr]

The napa guy called cross canada after he couldnt find it in his catalogue.....im thinkin they've discontinued it recently

you could also try the scrapyard , looking at 90 + shadows and sundances
they may offer a rebar that's not rotted out - yet being somewhat newer
