The license plate bracket for USA cars was moved from the rear shroud under the
bumper to the bumper itself at body 79900, which is approximately chassis 349XX.

Subject: [Healeys] Rear License Plate Mounting
Hi,
On my late 67 BJ8, the license plate bracket currently attaches directly to
the rear bumper. However, there are also two holes on the bottom of the rear
shroud that have bolts in them. Are the holes / bolts on the shroud just a left
over from a previous method of installing the bracket? Or is that actually the
correct place for the bracket to be installed on?
Second question - to avoid a continued bombing of the list with questions
about what are the correct colors & what current paints were used for different
parts - does the concours guidelines get to this level of detail? or is it more
like part X should be "flat black" etc?
Thanks as usual,
Neil
