sagefinds Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 These were together in a pile and identical end bolts,the one that appears to be a rear with a pooch out for a rear spare is a bit taller than the one I presume is the front. Appreciate any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) The front one in the photo looks like 1933 Studebaker (also poss. '32, as pictured), but bumper with "spare wheel" bulge doesn't appear on the '33 Studes I've checked. Yet, the two OP bumpers appear to match. Might be an accessory set up.

sagefinds Posted August 2, 2021 Author Share Posted August 2, 2021 Wow,I think you got it on the front,thanks much. Maybe something will come in on the rear yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58L-Y8 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Check the rear bumper of the 1934-'35 Studebakers with rear-mounted spare for the bumper with the offset section to accommodate the spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drwatson Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) This photo of a 1934 Studebaker with rear bumper bulge treatment is a slightly different style than 1933.

sagefinds Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 After DRWATSON ID'D the front,I pulled out the big Crestline Stude book to see what it showed. If you want a front or side view of something they are full of them,rears views are rare. However,one view of the rear of a Pierce Arrow with sidemounts had that same halfround bumper guard as mine but the bar was straight across. At that time Pierce had been bought out by Studebaker so that may be why the bumpers are close in style. Almost every Pierce pictured had sidemounts,but maybe a rare one had a rear spare and used my bumper. Thanks all for helping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stude1954 Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Pretty sure ( not positive ) that ‘34 and ‘35 are the same —- the ‘deeper hoop’ in the rear bumper for a rear spare car. See Dr Watson’s post above. Heres a 34 front : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
