Ebay, wreckers, on here.

They are easier and cheaper to come by these days - even a bumper replacement can be had for as little $50. (they used to fetch $650+ back in the day).

Short answer...no

Would take considerable re-manufacturing to fit.

Off topic, but what happened re: Rolled a sherpa on the Bruce 6 times in 94 and survived .....?

Sounds most unpleasant

I'm keen to hear about this as well. Sounds like you're one lucky fella! You might just have the luck to win one of those auctions!

I've also heard that the ford courier bullbars fit the L's with a little modification. What modification I don't know - I've just heard this on the grapevine...

Cheers
