1947 Panel Bumpers?

Just picked up a 47 Ford Panel and the bumpers are gone! Can't seem to find any used ones? Question is: Will any other year or model fit front & rear 47 Ford truck? Seems like there are plenty of GM bumpers around!
Thanks

Vettman, welcome to the board. Just want to make sure, you have the truck that has a truck type grille, not passenger car style? If so, any of the 42-47 half and one ton bumpers will work. I've heard the big trucks had a different bumper, but have never confirmed. The rear bumpers were optional and very difficult to find, only a small percentage of the trucks were ever equipped with them, I've heard around 5%.
Good luck on your search, let us know how it turns out.
