Shutup and start fabricating... :)

Take a 1" wide strip of brass sheet metal and bend it up on the vise.

As I recall it sort of looked like this...(side view)

Drill accordingly to match up the top two holes on the license and the holes
on the car.  

Get a standard metal border frame to go around the license edge from local
auto store.

As I recall I just fasten the top two holes and I have a pad on the bottom. 
The lower portion of the plate is bolted to the border frame but not to the
above bracket.

I also used wing nuts on the inside to hold the above bracket to the car.

a license plate holder for my Bugeye, it would seem I'm missing a part since
no license plate I've ever seen except maybe a motorcycle plate would fit
those holes on the back.  What am I missing?

Thanks,
