Greg,

The only real spring-loaded hinged front license plate frame I saw was on Lynn Park's original street 427. As I recall, it looked pretty hard to duplicate but I purchased a hinge and some aluminum plates to start but gave up since I do not have a sheet metal brake and I coudn't figure out the spring setup. If his car is exhibited or if he shows up driving it, I wll try to take the pix. Or I will ask him where I could get one. It makes sense for someone to duplicate and manufactue these because its more authentic than the type that goes behind the turn signal lamp ass'y.
