Title: Front license plate bracket
Post by: Buckaroo on 2021-09-27 14:33
I am looking for the front license plate bracket for a 57 Fairlane.  It has two holes close to each other in the center of the bracket.  Any help on where to find one would be appreciated.  I did not see one in any of my catalogs.

I am looking into having these reproduced.  I have to purchase 500 + to get it done and they would run retail at about $38 each. I have a prototype done and the manufacturer is ready to go,  But I am worried I won't be able to move enough.  Is there enough interest?

Thats a lot of brackets.  It is not that hard to fabricate one.  I modified an old Dietz universal one.  Yes they are hard to find.

Buckaroo.........I found mine if you're still looking. It's in pretty good shape. I can post a pic.

btw, my thought on having 500 of them made..........I wouldn't. too many......unless you can get the distributors to commit to enough quantity. Most states don't require a front license plate I don't think, so many don't use them anyways.
