Car Forum / Ford / Ford Mustang / July 2007License plate
Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to some serious talk. The holes on the covers are on top while the plates are mounted with the two bottom holes. What gives? There is a removable bracket in the front but none in the rear. > Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit > asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to > some serious talk. People in your area are so lame they don't know what a Mustang is without a plate cover telling them?? >> Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit >> asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to >> some serious talk. > > People in your area are so lame they don't know what a Mustang is > without a plate cover telling them?? Probably never saw a Grande before. People comment on the car and I know they are too embarrassed to ask what it is because they always have this pensive look on their face. How many Grandes live on your block :) It does not look like what people think of as a Mustang but it is every inch a Mustang. They only made just over 17,000 in '71 and I don't know how many of those were M-codes. It does get people's attention. > >> Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit > >> asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > They only made just over 17,000 in '71 and I don't know how many > of those were M-codes. It does get people's attention. That makes sense then. I've always wanted to see a real Grande myself! >> >> Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit >> >> asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > That makes sense then. I've always wanted to see a real Grande myself! Even though the Grande was Mustang's luxury car with a "sumptuous" interior, someone, several owners back, had it set up as a 1/8 mile street racer. The person I bought it from had it toned down a bit to make the car more drivable. When I asked my mechanic what type of clutch to use, he asked me how tires do I want to go through in a year. Makes sense. > Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit > asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > There is a removable bracket in the front but none in > the rear. Bought some of those once and had to send them back. Also notice that when in place they partially cover your plate numbers.Another piece of worthless "repro" junk. Fortunately they started re-making the 4 hole ones that say "Ford" on them. Look for this type!!

Look for this type!! > KenG These have the Ford logo followed by Mustang with the year at the top. Ordered a bracket that may solve the front plate problem. Where would I look for the four hole frames? mike >>> Got some plate covers for my '71 so people would quit >>> asking "nice car, what is it?" so we can get down to [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > mike Mustangs Plus(800-999-4289) and Mustangs Unlimited(888-398-9898) both have the 4 hole 1971 Ford Mustang frame and probably most of the other Mustang parts suppliers have them KenG > Mustangs Plus(800-999-4289) and Mustangs Unlimited(888-398-9898) both have > the 4 hole 1971 Ford Mustang frame and probably most of the other Mustang > parts suppliers have them > KenG Thanks for the heads up.
