I have 2 items that I had to buy used and I called every manufacturer/distributor out there. First is the rear license plate holder and second are the front bumper grill L brackets. What a pain to locate these.

The '67-'68 grill brackets are made and sold by a member on this site. I also believe Dynacorn now makes them as well.

The rear license plate is held in by two screws through plastic inserts. I'm not sure what 'holder' you are referring to.

'69 uses a metal framed bracket with a hinge. But not '67-'68.


I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

Do you know which member makes the L brackets for the grill to bumper mount?

The bracket at the lower left is the middle rear bumper bracket. Those are now just coming onto the market as repops. The upper left one is the license plate holder. I do not think anyone repops that one. I believe I have an xtra if you still need it.

I think Bill Edmunds is the guy.

Its earlybrds@aol.com

Not positive, but pretty sure. Anyone else remember? Bill hasn't been on here for quite a while.

Ive got the brackets now since I bought them off Ebay. Do you have the L brackets that hold the front grill to the bumper? I need 2 of those only.
Thanks

AMES sells them. They may be the ones Bill makes?

Just as a note to others.

The grill brackets can be bought at Ames.

The upper license plate holder is also sold through Classic and more than likely others.

I need the two plastic inserts for the rear lower license plate. I misplaced mine some where.
They are longer than the ones that you can buy at the parts store.
