Technical 56 packard tail lights, what rear bumper to use?

I have a pair of 56 packard tail lights with a small section of the quarter panels. I was planning on having a body shop friend of mine graft them onto my 52 Dodge Coronet this winter. Problem is, I don't have a rear bumper to go with them yet. They won't look right with the factory rear bumper.

What rear bumpers look good with these lights? Besides Packard of course. I've been told 56 chevy rear bumpers look good with em. I thought that would be easy to find locally, but suprisingly, I haven't seen a single one at the swap meets all year. Winter is fast approaching....

If you have any pictures, they are greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance.

 

A local 1951 mercury used the packard partician tail lights with the stock 51 merc bumper.

This is also worth looking at. First idea uses a 1956-57 Lincoln Continental bumper.

 

Howzabout '57-58 Caddy? Or really outside the box, '56 Chrysler?

 

I should have said in the original post, these are Clipper lights I'm using.

I am familiar with that car in the video, Mike Sorci is local to me. Nice car. But I'm not the biggest fan of upside down Packard lights

55\56 Buick "special-century" ...56 Chevy,, whatever you use will need to be modified some way

 

I've seen Mercs running '52 DeSoto bumpers with Packard tail lights and that seemed to work, they have a nice bumpout on either side of the rear bumper to accomodate the quarters. I feel like they only look right if you use them front and rear though.

 

I have a lead on a 56 chevy wagon rear bumper right now. We will see how that pans out. The wagons have the license plate on the bumper instead of the trunk lid. So I can use that to clean up my trunk area too

 

Got the bumper tonight. I think this will work out well.

 

1954 Mercury fits nice.

 

Good stuff!
How do you change rear tires with those pipes?

 

3 bolts per side and the rear pipes come off

 

55-64 Studebaker C/K rear bumper, or 56-58 sedan rear bumpers are nice too.
