Brought home a new toy
1936 Ford pickup with a mild 302 and automatic transmission. All steel except fenders and running boards. Runs and drives very nicely.

I need to figure out how to mount a front license plate. Any suggestions on what will work?

Hi and a very nice pickem up too. Could you use a simple clamp type arrangement that clamps to the bumper iron using a wing nut type fixture so that you could quickly remove the plate when parked for shows. The clamp could have a rubber lining to protect the finish on the iron yet be strong enough to handle the wind forces place on the plate when driving.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Thanks for the comments.
I took a closer look today and realized the ps bumper bracket has 2 holes for an original style plate bracket. I think a nice polished one will like just fine. I don't mind the plate showing.

well I decided to do another mod to gain max travel of bars past the intended travel points just for that peace of mind. 1/8 inch is to close so now I'll have 1/2" or better. I cut a 3/16" wall...
