I had the same thing out here in Washington state - they required front and rear plate.  No way I was going to drill holes in the nose cone.  I ended up mounting some rubber coated electrical loop holders to the front using longer screws in the frame around the radiator screen (existing holes).  Then mounted the plate to a clear plate cover with another set of loop holders.  I attached the plate from loop holder to loop holder with heavy duty zip ties.  It hung a little low, but the State Patrol was satisfied.  Good luck it making something work for your local cops.  Here in Washington I only need the rear plate for a collector car.  NO MORE FRONT PLATED NEEDED NOW!

There is a special  bracket to attach a ft plate to a wing car.( sorry I do not have a picture of one)

Ky doesn't require one but Ohio does.
A good friend of mine who lives in Ohio just keeps his ft plate on the floor between the seats in his bird. and the one or 2 times he's been asked about it, he just told them about said special bracket and that  it was next to impossibile to find( he does have one but has/will not put it on) , and he's never been written up for it yet
I live in Ohio....we require a front and rear plate.  There are ways around it....I have historical plates on my 68 charger.....they issue them and you dont have to renew they for 25 years...the only problem you are only allowed to drive to car shows or to get worked on (yea right)....if you have historical plates you only have to display a rear plate...you can also run the actual plate of the year of your car....I have 68 plates on my car (W8HUN)...you just have to keep the historical plates with you and the registration..

If you guys are getting tickets for not having a front tag in a classic car your officers need to lighten up!  I might  stop you only to get a closer look and talk to you about your car!

I know about being stopped just to look at the car.  The Bird is registered as a Belvedere here in Washington State.  I was once told that does not look like a Belvedere to me.  Then I showed my registration and all was OK.  You are right sometimes they just need a reason to check out and admire your ride.

I think the stupid cops need to get a life, they are just trying to fill their quota for the month.   ;D  Thats how they are where I live espcially the k-9 here in town what a douche bag just because he can't drive his car around doesn't mean he can just bug me all day!!! :D :nana:

Just joking Dave!! 

I run a hazzard county plate on my General and it is not the one registered to the car I keep that in the car under the seat, and run a confederate flag plate on the front.

i had a colorado  statey run to his car  turn on his lights and almost caused a car wreak just to pull me over to give me a ticket for no front plate on my 70 charger.   guess he just needed to be a prick.  never understood why i need one on the front. dont care if it helps the police. dont care about cops anyway.  never have run my front plate on any car. i just toss them in the garage.
