1971 Road Runner elastomeric bumper

[txchief]

I have a new in the crate Gene Gregory elastomeric bumper/brow for a 1971 Road Runner or Satellite. What's it worth?

Gene was selling them for 1800.00
Don't know if the guy in Canada is making them.

Nick Boughman of B&B Autorestorations is making them

Is he the guy who bought the molds from Gene?

Well I've heard that a guy in Canada bought the E-body molds but then a friend just told me that Art, Mr Six Pack, in NM bought them. I don't know who bought the 71 B molds.

Tommy the Chryco did buy the e-body ones and is currently making them from Genes molds. Tommy also knows who bought the brow molds but never mentioned him by name when I spoke with him. He said that guy who bought the 71 brow mold had trouble making a few and never made anymore...

Thats what I thought, Tommy in Canada. My friend said that Art will have the Cuda ones in a couple weeks so I don't know what molds he has. I'll see Art next spring. I did buy a set from him last year.

I think I saw Burns Fiberglass on FB is going to be making the brow. Look there to get an idea maybe??

When you purchased one of GenesG did it come with a hole template or did you have to line it up and guess ? My bumper had some elongated holes. You all should do what I did and get rid of the oversized eyebrow and make one that looks good and fits.

Not sure, He’s partnered with a guy from BC

No template. Also like everything that came from Gene had to do a lot of finish work.
