Daimler DB18 1951 on bumpers - are there two types?
Re: Daimler DB18 1951 on bumpers - are there two types?
you live and learn, I didn't know that!
Re: Daimler DB18 1951 on bumpers - are there two types?
Steve, yours is correct for a Consort.
FWIW how bad is it ?
The reason I ask is that rear bumpers are hard to find, so you will have to be lucky.
( one reason is that they are basically the same as the Barker Special Sports rear, so causes extra demand)
Unless it’s damaged, I’d stick with what you have.
On the other hand, new front bumpers can be found

Hi
Chrome wise very good but the underside of the bumper has rotted away -I was starting to wonder whether to have a section welded in and have it re-chromed?
To be fair it looks ok when on, you wouldn't know there was a problem as its the underside that rotted.
Thanks for the interest !!

The original metal is quite thick, so welding a replacement may be your best bet.

yes, I'm beginning to think that too
