If you look closely at the frame rail you may be able to see if there is an old "imprint" of the bumper bracket locations. Just an idea. Below is a photo of the 39 and 40 car rear bumper brackets for comparison. On these the inner bracket bolts to the cross member and the outer bracket bolts to the outside of the side rail.
