Early License Plate TL Bracket

Post by pkhammer » Wed Aug 23, 2023 7:11 pm

I have this cast iron license plate bracket that also has provision for supporting a kerosene tail lamp. Hard to read but appears to have a patent date of 1912? Is this a model T part or something universal?

It’s universal. I have one on both my ‘14s, ‘10 Maxwell and ‘11 Hupp. Consider this: you buy a new ‘13 Ford and it has a taillamp and bracket but no provision for a license plate…
So you gotta go to the Neverout Accessory store.

I have one on both my '13s. I sold one recently on this website. Be alert on these. There is also one with a round post that doesn't give the lamp very good support.

I bought 3 similar hooked together and sold as a clothes hanger. :lol:
When did I do that?
