Is anyone aware of a front crossmember "cover"? I just bought a 46 2A 38950 for parts and it has a formed, sheetmetal cover the is attached to the front cross member with 2 sheetmetal type slotted screws. It is also attached to the bottom lip of the grille with 2 bolts. Attached to the back edge of it a piece of the "horse hair" filler that butts up agains the bottom of the radiator. I've seen dozens of 2A's but I've never seen this part. It's rusty but repairable. Are there reproductions of this part? It is specific to any year of 2A? Is it correct for a '45? Thanks

Probably another "we'll never know for sure", but I have my opinion. It was an optional item, so:
