For some  reason, I had always thought '75 was the last year of chrome
bumpers, then  somewhere I thought it was '78, but then I saw a '78
that apeared to have  bumper, and got all confused.  Can someone
authoritatively straighten  me out?




Mike,
My 76 has the big rubber bumper extensions on a chrome bumper, similar to  
the TR6.  I am going to say that this is the transition year to that  type. In  
79 perhaps and definitely in 80 a full rubber bumper  appeared w/o chrome on 
the Triumph Spitfire.
