Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar
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 ,

Re: Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar
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?
Re: Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar
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.

I think they supplied the rebar to napa
Re: Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar
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
Re: Wanted: 87-91 daytona rear rebar
