An interesting debate…the clips were obviously factory installed as the holes are correctly tapped for fine thread screws with no evidence of any other fasteners being used.
Could it simply be a case of using what was available on the build date?
These instances make the old car hobby an intriguing endeavor!!
I have ordered a set of B-192442-B. Hopefully they fit correctly…
(BTW—I opened this topic on the Model A forum. A Barner shared that his 1931 Pierce Arrow uses the same clip/bumper! Wow!!)
