Any place that chromes bumpers should be able to straighten yours out. Its part of the process they do before plating. Northstar bumper was the place to go here in MN but they got bought out by I belive keystone. I saw a front and rear bumper they did for a friends 41 ply pickup and they came out great.

Where do you live Mike? The only bumper I have is in rough shape too. But my question is about the Fluid Drive badge that you are looking for. Which type do you need?

Is it this type?

I think either one is pretty hard to find, but I believe the first type are made from unobtainium. Don't give up your search. There are some out there somewhere.

If you really---really---really beg, I can give you information as to where to get that VERY Very hard to find "Fluid Drive" Script nameplate! You must howl like a Dalmation dog on a fire truck!

These truck "Fluid Drive" script nameplates are also the same as the 1949-50 DeSoto dash nameplate. Send me a PM and I`ll give you a name to get one!
