    front bumpers are very vulnerable on the 33 terrapland, dont pass up a rear. when i restored my 33 T8, i used a rear and cut about a 4 inch section our ofeach sid about where the fenders meet the center pan and made it the correct width, welded the pumber back to gether and had it plated, a few little holes were evident on the welds and covered those with the flat Bumber guards of the period that looked great and covered the light seam. the BEST I CAN DO FOR YOU, BILL ALBRIGHT

    You might want to consider whether yours is a late Deluxe model (made from Aug. of '33 on) as the bumpers on them slightly different than the early models, that is if you can find one at all, LOL!

    You can see them in Butler's book.

    My dads has a broken front bumper too. I didn't realize it was that common of a problem.

    Not knowing anything about the 33 terraplane but it seems like the 33-34 Fords had "kinda" the same style that may work after some adjustments ? Just a thought.
