Subject:      FS: Straight Chrome Bumper w/Rubber Strips
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Howdy From Texas,

I just removed a good, straight, chrome front bumper from my 1987 GL. I am
going to sell the bumper. I wanted to offer it to list members before I put
it on eBay.

It is in good condition, especially for a 17 year old bumper. I am including
the black rubber strips that attach to the front of the bumper. They look
nice and are in good condition. The black end caps are NOT included, but can
be obtained from many list vendors, or you can reuse your old ones.

Please Note: There are two holes in the center where there are usually
threaded inserts to mount the front license plate. The inserts are not
present in the bumper, but the holes are. You can probably use a punch to
pop out your current inserts (if your bumper has them) and put them in place
in this bumper (I'd secure them with a little JB Weld). If you don't have
the inserts, and you still need to install a front license plate (if
required in your state), you can still easily use commonly found hardware to
attach your plate (it may be necessary to install the plate on the bumper
before the bumper goes on your Vanagon if you go this route). Removal and
installation of the front bumper is very easy.

This is a really nice bumper. I will supply pictures to SERIOUSLY interested
parties. Just send me an e-mail and let me know if you want pictures.

I don't quite know what the bumper is worth, so I'm taking offers. I'll
accept the best offer I receive by NOON, SUNDAY, APRIL 11, 2004 (Central
Time).

I accept PayPal (preferred), money orders, and cashier's checks. If you pick
up the bumper in person I will accept cash. I don't know how much shipping
will be because I haven't packed it yet, and the price will depend upon how
far it is being shipped. I live in Austin, Texas, ZIP 78751. I will probably
ship via UPS Ground or FedEx Ground. Buyer is responsible for boxing and
shipping charges. I will ship the same day I receive payment in full or on
the next regular business day.

I sell a lot on eBay and have very good feedback. Check for yourself. My
eBay ID is: motor_bruce (make sure you use the underscore, I am not the
other motorbruce on eBay).

I reserve the right to cancel this offer at any time.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. The time to ask
questions is before you bid. If necessary, I will do my best to estimate
shipping costs.

Cheers,
Bruce
