I'll look for it tomorrow. I had two of them. I powder coated one for my 57 and put the other in storage.

Sorry, I have not found it yet. I know it is here and I will take the time to keep looking.  I moved about a year ago and so have lots of packed boxes to look through.

Interesting. This License Bracket fits my 57 Custom 300 perfectly. I thought all 57 Ford front bumpers were the same.

That is very different than both of my Custom 300 bumpers. Mine are 3/8" diameter holes that are 1 1/2" apart.  Maybe there is no bracket for your bumper and the license plate is supposed to be mounted directly into those slotted holes.

There were two different bumpers. I don't know when or why it changed, but most of mine have the small holes with bracket, but I have an extra bumper that just has the wide pattern??????????? Bob

Both my old and newly chromed bumper just have the 2 holes at 1 1/2 spacing.

Replacement bumpers have the wide holes. Factory ones have the bracket.
