[VAC] '62 bumper mounting



What is the original method of attachment of the rear bumper to the frame? Mine has been modified, with a 4" or so steel tube welded onto the outside of the bumper (for sewer hose storage I assume). But the bumper itself was just welded at top and bottom to the end of the frame, and did not appear original or secure. The frame also has 2 torched holes near the end in the vertical leg. Was there some kind of bracket between the bumper and the frame originally? Thanks for all replies.
