    If you don't need a new one, contact Rick "The Cannibal" in the province of Zeeland, The Netherlands :TU:

    NEWMEXGUY - Sent you a PM about the rear bumper. Does anyone know if that 77 Regal bumper would work on a 77 Century? They look the same. I have a friend that needs a 1977 Century Rear Bumper and Filler Panel. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. - Lon

    Yes, same bumper.
    The Century Custom station wagon bumpers were different :TU:

    When the car is in the U pull it, it is only available for a short time - often as little as three months. Then the entire row is taken out and crushed. I did advertise a pair of 75 Century coupes, and this 77 Regal coupe when they were in the yard, but there was little interest. Not a whole lot of demand for colonnade parts, so buying heavy, large parts for inventory's sake is dicey, to say the least. Did sell one set of bumpers to a customer, who is a professional restorer, and just happened to have one in his shop at that time. One could literally sit on the parts for years, decades, even, before they sell. No filler panels, here, the sun turns them into brittle sections, which break into pieces at the slightest pressure. Believe that there are filler repro houses in Hemmings, and probably JC Whitney's catalog.

    Larry - thanks for the reply/PM. Erik sent a link on the repop filler parts which is appreciated. I would keep posting when you see a car in the U-pull it. Someone might need something at the time. Again thanks for the post and the extra effort. - Lon

    thanks for the help!
    the parts from newmexguy work perfectly

    it's really hard to get parts here germany... especially when you`re looking for parts like quarter window trims or interieur parts.
