A NOS Grillle center and Bumper clamp to what cars?

Tough ones. A thorough search of 50's-60's models leaves the piece in the upper photos still a mystery. There some resistance welds visible; might they differentiate GM, Mopar or fomoco ? Can you read the vintage of the other parts in the crate?

Is the bumper fitting in the lower photos nickel plate or chrome? The photo looks like nickel.

Unfortunately the lot of parts i got this with covered from the 1920's to the 1980's and this one had been moved from box to box enough times, I'm sure it wasn't with the parts it was probably packed with when it left the dealership.

I was really really thinking late 40's or early 50's as well.

The bumper clamp is Chrome plated which I think would put it into the late 20's or very early 30's.

Thanks for taking the time to try and figure them out!

Thanks for the input. As you said I don't think it's right but worth a look.

The closest thing I found was the park light division on a 1960 Cadillac. But that's not right either. I ran it through a really good picture book from the 50's and 60's with year by year photos of every make and model but nothing matched up. It's heavy enough to be a bumper piece rather than a grille.
