[V8] License plate bracket

[diemarthadie at aol.com]

 Roger,



You should be able to whip up something with Home Depot parts for about $10 that will cover your registration needs.? I can't believe that between ForceFive and GermanAuto there isn't a front plate mount around?? There have to be ones around here on the list - there are lots of guys with several spare cars...

    This isn't a surprise really Roger.  Normally if a car ends up in a    wrecking yard, it got punched in the nose pretty hard.  Not too many    usable parts up there.  The front bumper tends to hit lots of things    over the course of a decade or two as well.  I know mine has battle    scars on it from the supermarket.
