I know ‘68 is completely different, but I didn’t have to remove the condenser to install mine. I dropped the valence, which I guess would be the bumper in your case, and pulled the right side grille...

It’s a .875 I got from GM years ago. I thought about upgrading to a 1” since I have a big sway bar on the front but it’ll have to wait until my bank account recovers from this swap.

I asked for a 3” but they strongly advised against it. Figured if I’m having one made, I might as well get one that’s definitely going to hold up. My exhaust isn’t welded so I bet I could wiggle it...
