Hello.
I just wondered if earlier cars had the same front bumper as the 356A t2.
If not, how different were they? Could they be modified?
Thanks in advance

Looking at Brett Johnson's Authenticity IV (highly recommended) a single bumper type was used from Oct '52 to the end of A models
Later models had cut-outs for the through-the-bumper-guard exhaust pipes & holes for the over-rider tubes (the latter US market)

Thanks for this, Hugo
So, front bumpers were the same if after oct 1952? That's kind of what i gathered looking online but nothing was definitive so thought I'd check
