The bumper mentioned, p/n B-191442-A and -B is specified in the 1938 Hardware and Trimming Supplies catalog as being used on the 1935 Model 48 and 1936 Model 68 Convertible Sedans. With no mention of the 1937 Model 78 or the 1938 Model 81A how is one to know for certain it is the correct item?
Granted, it may not be the correct part but if it works as intended and the OP is happy with that as a solution then where’s the problem? Not every old Ford is a 100 point car but can be just as enjoyable to the owner and the casual admirer.
