Thanks for the picture and the information!  I will try to fab it from sheet metal like you suggested unless someone sees this thread and already has done so. Save me the trouble!

I guess I can fab the plate but not sure if I can make it look like new or close to original?  I was hoping somebody had the same problem and had either made something or had an actual old attachment plate??

Beautiful picture. I am missing item #2. The vin plate goes on top of the holder.  I guess I can just rivet it back with no holder?  Would look normal from the outside  ??

The dash looks normal. Looks like it was done then primed. The slot on the driver side for the vin is there. There is 2 holes toward the driver where the rivets would go to hold the vin holder. I could just put the vin plate in with epoxy and would look normal put I would like it to be correct and look normal.

Hi,

I inherited a 68'.  My dad was in the process of restoring the car.  He removed the Dash vin while repairs were being made.  I have the Vin Plate!  I need the holder that held it up in the dash that was riveted in.  My windshield is removed and don't want to just jB weld it in.  Want to make it as nice as possible. 

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tim
