Hup bumper mounting brackets
I got a request for photos of the HUP (44 or older) bumper mounting brackets. Believe it or not, I only had one HUP nearby with said brackets. They appear to be 8 inch by 4 inch plate metal (same thickness as the frame) that has been bent 90 degrees forming an even "L" shape. As seen in the photo, the end of the frame side bracket has been cut on an angle leaving approx one inch bottom of the bracket. Three holes are drilled on the frame mounting end which held rivets, and four holes drilled in the bumper end to match the "D" rings. I am not sure if the weld was a post war mod or not.

There are some odd mixtures of bolts and rivets too, some of them can be explained by assembly order and access, others look like either a rivet failed and was replaced by a bolt or someone either had to remove a part that had been riveted and used bolts to reassemble or sometimes another part was added that used an original rivet hole, drilled out and replaced by a bolt.
