    I bought this yesterday at a junkyard, supposedly to fit a '32 Chevy. Looks more like a '32 Ford to me...but I don't know anything about it if it isn't an International.
    Can somebody ID it for me?

    Also...it looks to have been made from melting pellets (look unde rthe mounting pad), and a magnet sticks to it well...so I assume its not an aftermarket stainless one. Is it OEM?

    Looks like someone plated a Model A bar, but maybe it is a plated Chevy bar. NOT a 1932 Ford bar. Good save!:)

    I was seein' the 32 Chevy's doubles, so then I searched a '32 Ford and it looked close. Now I'm lookin' at A Fords, and they had a dozen different ones for the different years and models of them...it ought not be this hard!

    If the bolt holes are round it is a Chevy, square holes would d be Model A Ford. The area were the bar meets the pad looks more like a Chevy bar to me. :)
