Front License Plate Bracket?
So I just bought a 65 Tempest Custom 4 door sedan for my 12 year old son. I noticed it has a bracket on the front bumper for the top half of the license plate. My question is, was a similar bracket used in 66? I've never seen one, but it makes some sense to secure the top of the plate.....
Anyone know? Thanks, Importsmasher

Nope,
66/67 did not use this. Pic below shows the 66 front. Chris.

Chris, that is exactly how my 66 looks. I've never seen such a bracket before, and when I saw it on the 65 it made me wonder about 66. Thanks for the clarification!

Thanks! Lol if it had been correct for my 66, I was going to steal it off my son's car, since originality is no concern.....
