think those bumpers came off an early Type3, possibly US spec with the towel rails on them?

they look like early bumpers to me.

If you should decide to return to the original bumpers I may be interested in purchasing these for my early :D

Funny, I was just about to make a post saying, "hey that type 3 has the same wheels as my type 4".... :D

They are revolution RFX alloys, generally viewed as competition wheels and popular on Escort Mk1 / 2 rally cars.

My thread viewtopic.php?f=32&t=8540

........and I agree, they do look nice, my favourite colour for a type 3 too :thumbsup:
