1st gen Dodge is flat nosed compared to the 2nd gen. Sounds like a LOT of work (probably a total deconstruction and reconstruction) to make it work. Probably not worth it. Be cheaper and easier to buy steel and build from scratch but that's just my opinion.

Where are you located roadbike21? I can tell you of a company or 2 that makes them down here in Texas. One is southwestfabricators.com. They built the bumper that is in my gallery pics.
