I also am no expert on EXU TCs, but I have owned one since 1967 and it came with bumpers and all the right EXU stuff. The TC Service Parts list, AKD 856, pages P.4, P.5 and P.6 lists all the bits required for the bumpers and other parts to make the EXU different, including a longer crank ( like a TD? ) to clear the front bumper. So yes, the bumpers were factory fitted for the EXU TCs. If the pictures had no bumpers, then they were not EXU TCs. Bob On Wed, 24 Jan 2001, David and Joyce Edgar wrote to T-ABC list:

Not all the "Colonies". Just the United States.
