Unknown bumper strap

Posted by James Kallman On 2024/7/4 17:31:01

In disassembling the rear bumper of my 1949 series 22 custom eight club sedan (body 2255 chassis 2206) I found an unusual strap. It was secured by the top bolt that connects the right rear bumper guard to the bumper. At the end of the strap was another hole and some electrical tape loosely wrapped around the strap. Two photos are attached. Does anyone have an idea what this strap might be for?
