Hi Carl,
I'm sorry but I don't recognize it.
How was it mounted?
Here's the typical front license bracket, do you have this part too?
Regards,
Alan

The plate was typically just fastened at the top, thus just 2 nylon nuts.


It mounts to the large center bumper bracket, with 1 bolt/nut each side.

alan, the one I got from corvette america looks and mounts like the one you show in the picture, wasn't sure if this was for earlier or later model, someone made a bracket and had it drop down from the bumper bracket , guess they were using what they had laying around thanks carl
