They don't make 'em like that anymore

Crude, but fun?

Neal,
I've never seen one with the huge Nader nudgers; are you allowed to remove them these days and fit the chrome bumpers? Looks in good condition.

This is "Historic" plated so I can do almost anything I want to it, however to keep it in "as original" condition the big bumpers remain, However I am thinking of switching the single Stromburg for the twin SUs
