Location: Louisville Ky | All I have is two holes in the front bumper which are 3" apart. They are also on the underside of the bumper. Does anyone know where I can get a bracket that will hold a standard 6" x 12" license plate? Front plates are not required in Kentucky so I am going to attach an original plate from 1955. I would rather not have to drill two new holes so any suggestions other than that would be appreciated. Does anyone have a pic of what the bracket looks like? Thanks....

I am guessing that this 56 Chevy bracket would suit your needs (my 56 Dodge bracket is WAAAAY different)

Location: Louisville Ky | My holes are on the underside of the bumper-not on the front like yours. If I used the piece you recommended the plate would be facing downward at a 45 degree angle. Thanks for taking yours apart to show me....

Location: Louisville Ky | There had to be some kind of a bracket on the bumper of a '55 Dodge so the plate wouldn't be tilted downward. Is there anyone who has a '55 who could post a pic of theirs? Hey Hondaman, what does yours look like? |
