Location: So. Cal		Here are the dimensions of a front license plate bracket for a '57-'58 Desoto. I ended up making a full model of it so I will include a 3D model if anyone wants it for some reason. I hope this helps someone to make their own if they can't find anything used.

Location: So. Cal		Here is the 3D model in SAT format if I can get it to load. I also have a pdf of the drawing in 1:1 scale if anyone needs it. But it is on "B" drawing size format, which I think is legal paper size?

Edit: I was able to load it only by zipping it first to make it a smaller file size.

So with that type of drawing, will that work on a 3D printer

I know the plastic would not be strong enough, just curious though

Location: So. Cal		Thanks. With the 3D model in the SAT file, you could print it off if you wish, but like you said, it wouldn't be strong enough. But, you could also use it to contract it out to a sheet metal fab place to have them build it for you. But it would be quite expensive unless you build 100's of them.
