And So It Begins.... 1970 340 Cuda Restoration

Beautiful car!  if you dont mind me asking...why did you paint the front bumper and not the back??

Sure, according to the cars fender tag it came from the factory with a painted front rubber bumper and a chrome rear bumper.  When I originally bought the car the front rubber bumper had been replaced with a chrome bumper.  When I restored the car I put a front rubber bumper on it to bring it back to the way it came from the factory.

Oh that sucks (and is great at the same time)... must have been poor prep or incompatible products.
