73 swinger rear bumper fit 72 scamp?

[thejohnnyguy]

well will it? I have a 73 dart sport parts car and the rear bumper on it is nicer than the one on my scamp... I wanna swap em... Whatchu think?

Will not work. Scamps have Dart Swinger rear bumpers. Dart Sports are different.

Will not work. Scamps have Dart Swinger rear bumpers. Dart Sports are different.

Sorry I typed this before I had my morning cup of coffee... the parts car is a 73 Dart Swinger (Not Sport)... So this will swap?

No. Still will not work. They changed the rear bumper on the Swingers in 73.

Actually, yes, this swap of a '73 Dart-except-Sport bumper onto a '72 Scamp will work. The different bumper setup Burntorange70 has in mind started in '74, not '73. The Swinger bumper will have different taillights than the Scamp bumper, and there's a reinforcement plate behind the bumper bar in '73 that's not there in '72, but they are bolt-for-bolt interchangeable.

Thanks Dan for the correction. You are right. I got mixed up.
