the rear bumper was changed from slash to pointy partway through the 65 model year... I have seen pics of both on 65s in OG lit, with slash front. so, get which ever you like. my 65 westy had no rear bumper when I got it. I bought a slash one with pea shooter cut outs for $15 and ran that for a few years, now have a pointy on there now cause I found a nice one.
