    Hello, I bought a box of Parts the other day and these were in there. Not sure exactly where and what vehicles they went on. Inside it is stamped Ford GEM LH 271 and the other one has RH. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Ron

    looks like aftermarket parts, made by GEM, for some Ford. They look like fancy bumper guards? What do they have for mounting hardware provisions?

    Ford part numbers don't look like that.

    Thanks for the reply. I'll try to post a photo of the back

    I didn't find anything like that in my 1958 JC Whitney catalog...perhaps from a little later?

    The parts are die cast ( white metal, potmetal, zinc) what ever your favorite terminology is. The back side does not look like normal high production automotive design. Could they be hardware or even jukebox parts? Where did the box of parts come from? What other hobbies might the owner have had?

    The building I got these from is full of vintage car parts. I know Gem made a lot of bumper guards and these are stamped Ford. Thanks
