    I'm looking for this style of front plate holder can anyone help

    I've seen these on a couple of other SWB cars, but I don't know who would sell them?

    Sam,

    That is the Porsche mounting bracket that fits all early cars I believe. They are NLA unfortunately. But check ebay. They come up for sale occasionally. In fact, just last week I bought an NOS mounting kit complete with all of the original mounting hardware. And a lot of hardware there is.

    If it would help, I could take some detailed photos and post them. It wouldn't be a hard part to fabricate.

    Sam,
    While looking for other parts last night, I saw a set of these in my stash, NOS. Now I have to refind them! Last night was a long time ago in MY mind.

    The NLA brackets are a slightly different shape than the one shown on the Prototype car. They are also one piece galvanized steel where I think the Proto bracket is two piece aluminum with a welded seam.

    The Proto bracket is better looking to me with that smooth curve coming off the valance. I'm going to build myself a set as soon as I get a few other projects done.

    As for the stock brackets ask on the Pelican board too. There's lots around.

    Sam-
    I got a set of the galvanized version from Tweeks, but it's been a few years. They fit very well.
