Flip Up License Plate Frame
I've been searching for an old '70's style flip up license plate frame like those used when the gas cap was hidden behind the plate. I can't seem to find one anywhere. Any chance someone has one or knows where to find one?
I am finalizing my rear bumper convert, aka 89911, and I have moved the tow hook receiver to go under the rear license plate. The plate bolts will now house LED lights to illuminate the plate so I don't want to have to remove the plate everytime I head to the track. Also, I've got tons of pictures I will post when the project is complete. John

Might want to check JC Whitney or maybe some other outfit that sells parts for 70's muscle cars. Maybe like Year One. Just a guess.

John,
You might try a junk yard that has older cars. I'm sure with enough sanding and fresh paint, it will be worthy of being attached to the 911. ![]()

Bird. It's the word...

I rigged up a central locking solenoid to push up my rear number-plate on my old R1 bike

While you're back behind the bumper maybe some oil squirters and nails to drop behind you in a chase?

Every custom sport truck place in the world should have one of these.
