I assume you are talking about the snubber. No one makes the complete unit but Renner's Corner, rennerscorner.com, (734) 428-8424 sells the parts to rebuild yours. If you need the complete unit place an ad in "The Swap Meet" wanted section.

Now could some one post a pic of the "snubber"? How does it attach to the firewall? Do the repro firewalls have the location and bolt holes for the snubber? I guess I will try a search for "snubber" too and see what comes up.

Here's a photo of an original snubber as installed. I doubt if the four mounting holes in the firewall for the snubber are provided on reproduction firewalls.

There are excellent pics of snubber and firewall in the '32 Service bulletins...the bulletins are an absolute must for all sorts of reasons if you are messing with a '32. Also get the '32 resto book, not cheap like the bulletins but more of an investment than an expense... answers to all sorts of questions. DG's answer will be authoritative, but as far as I have seen firewalls are drilled for everything needed for B and V8. The Empty holes are blocked off by the insulation behind the wall.

Interesting, is this really a motor mount or a vibration damper?

Not all firewalls have the four holes for the base of the engine snubber, although their absence would be very unusual on any firewall other than the very earliest version.
