The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Woody question-bumper guards

sawzall · 03-09-2019, 07:58 PM

I have two FORD 1941 1948 ford woodie rear bumpers.. ONE is NOS.. the other is a presentable usable one.. mine N.O.S. unit was NOT at hershey swap meet 5 years ago, as I haven't had it that long.

as far as I know.. 41 - 48 ford woodies have the same rear bumper..
AND as far as I know 1942- 1948 merc used the ford rear bumper.

until recently I didn't realize that 41 merc woodie had a unique rear bumper, likely because I hadn't ever encountered one in the wild.. however.. apparently it does and of course I realized this fact AFTER i passed up the opportunity to buy one.. .

I have never investigated the differences in rear bumper guards but it does make sense that rears would be slightly different.. and likely more like 41's
