I love that body style so much that I ordered a new 2,000 Chevy 2500 before it was released. It has that tall hood front like that 72 long bed Chevy

[@BenJaMin-zs4tt]

But you don't sell to canada

[@popperbits]

Robbie this is a great truck but it's not a one owner! You are the 3rd owner!!!

[@C-C-777]

15x entries for everyone??? Makes me want to spend more money!! WOW!!. Everyone still has the same odds as if they have 1 entry... 🤔😳 Some people will buy more thinking they have a better chance... 😣

Leave that bumper. That is a beautiful truck.

[@farmercraig567]

Leave the bumper

[@roberthocking9138]

Robby., leave the rear bumper as it is, it’s an original option . Beautiful old truck, what a shame it couldn’t stay in that family, his grandpa would be very sad it was sold

[@ecgwyo]

I’d recommend custom powdercoat on rear bumper to match body colors, that would be cool! Stupid autocorrect put powerboat in for powdercoat, lol

[@johnhopkins4920]

@@ecgwyoWhat custom powerboat??? That’s just weird, dude.

[@michaelwyrick4046]

The only original option for that truck was a chrome smoothie that matches the front, all step and hitch bumpers were aftermarket, usually flex n gate and dealer installed!

[@petergrey7125]

Yes, agreed! 👍

[@Wahayawolf73]

You know the guys wife told him to sell the truck or she'll divorce him

[@Tom-6502]

I remember when pickups came without rear bumpers because they were an option... the dealer would either supply them, like this truck, or else they'd sell them without a bumper if the customer chose to buy the truck without one. So, it is a dealer bumper that was originally on it when sold, but it isn't a "factory" bumper. In some states, they still sold trucks without a rear bumper into the late 80s before the Federal laws changed and required them. I'd leave this bumper on the truck.

[@average-joe-citizen1]

My 1991 Ford f150 custom came without a rear bumper. The painted deal installed bumper was more than a Chrome one from United Bumper in St Louis MO. Home town. I'm retired from the automotive repair world. I bought wholesale.

[@mustangman4291980]

My parents bought a 96 Ford F250 without a rear bumper. Ranchers in New Mexico don't like paying for a bumper they will just replace.

[@doughaven-rf8id]

My 1966 F100 that my dad bought new came without a bumper. There were many companies building aftermarket bumpers those days. Mine has a Luverne brand made in south Dakota.

[@robertcorrasa7228]

Hi, in Southern California we installed "Frank Fey" step bumpers on new trucks. I did this in the late 60's and the 70's. Very few trucks came with OEM factory rear bumpers at this time.

[@threynolds2]

@@doughaven-rf8id I own a 1966 F-100 with no rear bumper. I live in Tennessee and about ten years ago a city cop pulled me over for no rear bumper. I explained that in 1966 they were optional and pointed out the working light on the license plate mounted by the factory under the bed. The officer let me go.

[@JerameChamberlain_SparkeyinVA]

Wish you had kept the white walls. They looked so good.

[@ericking9767]

I LOVE THAT TRUCK!!! PLEASE KEEP IT ORIGINAL.

[@toddplaugher1785]

Leave the bumper. It's great!

[@avlisk]

This truck deserves to live in a climate without winter where it won't rust away. Good luck to you guys in the southwest!

[@scottmiller2455]

Totally agree. I live on the Oregon coast. Would love to own it (refer to my comment regarding history with this era) While watching I thought it would be a disservice to it and its history to have it here.

[@jelly7310]

I live in the rust belt (Ohio) and if I win it it will not be driven in the salt. EVER!!!!!. I have a 2000 Cherokee for my winter beater with a good heater and 4x4.

[@geneortiz6334]

thankfully he aunt in the east coast. I'm in nm and we can leave a car outside for 30 + yrs and it's just surface rust. our climate is perfect for cars

[@avlisk]

@@geneortiz6334 I grew up in the northeast and when I went out west, I couldn't believe all the old cars that I hadn't seen in 30 or 40 years that still were in great shape.

[@MikeWillis-sp6vj]

If it was me, I would leave the bumper on it leave it as much original as you possibly can. I love it just the way it is.

[@wubber2chc]

I vote to Keep the dealer installed bumper. Super sweet truck!!

[@tomhendricksen1805]

Here is an old tire trick. When you need to use high balance weights (I was told over 2 ounces) dismount the tire, rotate it 180 degrees, and remount it again. If the he weld seems on the wheel and the seems in the tire line up they will need larger weights to offset the combined weight. As a benefit the tire will roll smoother too.

[@kennethbrown8723]

Or get a rim that isn’t bent!!

[@tracyweber9308]

That is my favorite body style chevy truck. It will look awesome with the hubcaps back on. Keep it as original as possible bumper in all!

[@user-qn3ug3kx2o]

@Robby Layton, The BWW on the invoice for truck means, Bias white wall tires. Bias (non radial) White Wall tires. Very nice vintage truck!

[@lgreen4479]

She's a beaut Clark! That was a steal, body alone in that shape, cool truck.👍🏻

[@lucasns85]

The bumper must stay!!! At the very least it needs to go home with the new owner dog the truck. This truck is incredible.

[@bludoe1]

Robbie, I appreciate the goodness you pay forward, keep up the good work!

[@waltingram4198]

What a perfect truck. Thank you so much for all great memories. May God bless you.

[@johnstancato8785]

Leave the bumper it's heavy duty every truck deserves a heavy duty bumper

[@ecgwyo]

I totally agree, it’s vintage style that looks awesome on the truck

[@ecgwyo]

Powder coat the bumper the orange color, with white accents. Kevin could make that bumper look awesome!

[@jackbraithwaite8345]

The bumper is not a "Factory" bumper. The truck came with either a factory bumper or no bumper. The bumper on it is a "Dealer" bumper, hence the Dealer Name and Location. That bumper is nostalgic and helps to tell the truck's history. I personally would leave it on the truck. GREAT first give away vehicle ! Thank You for making this happen ! Much Love from Ohio !

[@Jason-xb3jh]

[@robertwise9127]

That is one beautiful truck! Brings to mind my grandpa's ‘70 Chevy step-side short-bed pickup that had wood boards in the bed. That's a very happy memory!

[@ElbowEyE]

That bumper goes with the truck. Had the same bumper on my 1970 c10

[@garyduquette1784]

Robby, please put the white letters out on the give away truck. 1972 white letter tires were the new thing. Chrome step bumper would be cool.

[@MabutiKazoku]

My dad had a 79' he gave to my brother a few years ago... I always wanted that thing but it was good to go to my brother. Going to buy some merch to try to get this one to surprise my 87 yr old dad!! He is a viewer so he will see this video and probably love it.

[@dougalexander7204]

I like the bumper. Obviously the old boy wasn’t a wussy and was prepared to haul something, anything. Good luck on the On X build. The bread truck is the most gorgeous over lander ever. Sean’s touch is over the top and the paint looks delicious.

[@krisa3685]

Rear Bumpers were not factory the dealer may have installed it but all pickups use to come from the factory with no rear bumper, and bumpers were aftermarket made, My first truck was a used 1972 Chevrolet pickup, it was black, 4x4 with manual trans, I bought a used 1974 chrome rear blazer bumper for my truck, from a wrecking yard.

[@frick-n-frack4191]

That is my absolute favorite truck on the planet. I had the chance to pick one up about 10 years ago. It was way to much damage to fix. I have 1875 entries. I just grabbed the Robby Layton Nation Essentials. A little nudge nudge wink wink. My Birthday is November 28, 1971. This truck was built just for me. Anyway, Awesome truck thanks for doing this. Very Cool. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!

I agree. The guy who sold it to you, I am sure is a huge fan and he deserves to have this truck. I am sure people will buy Merch and donate the tickets to him. Do the right thing Robbie.

[@dodgeguyz]

Maybe, except it looks like he’s got nowhere to keep it. So it’ll just sit outside and rot! Just like how it was found!

[@warrenmichael918]

Did i miss WHY he was selling it? Didnt look like he needed the money.

[@dodgeguyz]

@@warrenmichael918 Ya, I didn’t hear why. It’s crazy he is selling it. And for being his grandfathers bought new for only $4k! Maybe that’s why he didn’t sell it outright and called Robby?

@posinet1125 What are you talking about "he deserves to have this truck"? He DID have it and sold it to Robby!

[@michaelgomez3044]

NO

[@dodgeguyz]

Nice find. And I’m sure someone’s going to love it! On the rear bumper, I say either have it powder coated in body color or have it chromed. Not sure which one would look better. I vote chrome to match the frt bumper.

[@MikeY77z28]

Robby.But on a chrome bumper.But,include the original with the truck.

[@jdbrown3695]

What a great find! The truck is beautiful. Leave the HD bumper on it! Anyone who wanted a heavy duty bumper in the 70's would put a bumper like this on their truck.

[@caseyrenner7024]

Robby i think you should leave that rear bumper with the Smith Chevy Stamping, but have Sean Wrap the corners on the ends to make it more Astheticly pleasing. powder coat it white after to match the white stripe, or strip it and polish it

Yes, leave the bumper.

Back in the day, you had to pay for your rear bumper. You could get a factory chrome bumper, or a cheaper painted bumper that they dealer got from a supplier, with the dealers name on it. When I bought my 89 Dodge Dakota, I was working for a detail shop and ordered my painted bumper straight from the supplier, saving $50-$60 dollars, and put it on myself.

[@garychaiken808]

Great job guys. Thank you 😊

[@johnculver3294]

Leave the rear bumper!! Man that sure is a beautiful color combination!!

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Silly Question, but: Does it have a Spare to use it's rim for the meanwhile? Most people forget them and find them about flat when needed as they don't check pressure too. I'm with the majority in saying 'keep the bumper and powder coat it to match'.
