Here is Serges GL getting some TLC. He has a tranny leak and he is trying to track it down.

Ooh... That one is new to me! I did see the Afsluitdijk picture of his car on the trailer.
Better to have a tranny leak then a crumpled car.

Thats so cool @GeneralLee_440! I wonder if this is the Lee of Alma or Serge, never seen either myself. Maybe I should someday hire the car?
Serge has the actual front valance from LEE1 I heard.
EDIT: This is Serge's car comparing numberplates.

Sorry, I hadn't seen this post.
There are unfortunately no official push bar measurement. As you might know, the early pushbars were actually of a truck. Not sure which. But good luck finding one of those. The Valuzets who made the early California cars created new pushbars or very similar ones from the cars they have gotten from Georgia, but they dont let you take measurements.
I think your best bet is to contact @CornDog through his RealGeneralLee Instagram account. I believe he has one with original measurements.

A couple of forums have a very rough sketch of the wide push bar with measurements, but I can't see any plans for the narrow one. Having said that, the Smith Bros. site still appears to offer a narrow push bar for $299, which includes shipping to the lower 48.
I'm sure you've probably searched the internet, but I found an interesting discussion about the pros and cons of each type of push bar, and advice on fixing methods, at www.dodgecharger.com. It looks like the steel push bars weigh somewhere between 30 and 45 lbs, and several people expressed an interest in getting push bars made of aluminum if they could get plans. The dodgecharger link above also discusses the best way to paint them.
I never joined CGLFC, but did browse it many times. If there's any information you need from that site, you may be still be able to access it through the Wayback Machine.

@rnkibbe still has that pushbar? Didn't know that. Heard them talk about a light weight version on the show some time ago.
Smith Bros. makes sense, they make stuff like the jump Lee's seen at Cooter's last stand and John's event.
I know this is not what this topic is about but the wide push bar pretty much has at least the width easy to know as it's welded to the outside of the frame, I've laid under a car in a museum to verify this.
