       Sitting in the garage here are a 1972 GT6 and 1973 GT6. The 1972 GT6 
has a diffferent rear bumper than the 1973. The 1972 bumper is only slightly 
physically larger than the 1973, the Triumph badge is clearly larger than the 
1973, and it as has that optional /aftermarket extra bar hoop on it. 

       The 1973 bumper is damaged and needs to be replaced. If it is not the 
right bumper, then I should not use it as the basis for getting a replacement. 
However, the bumper and Triumph badge on the 1973 looks comparable to those 
in some of the Triumph factory publicity photos. Was there a difference between 
the 1972 and 1973 rear bumpers in size and badging?

       This seems really trivial, and it is...except when you go to sell the 
car and someone says that it has the wrong bumper.
