flags for front bumper
 

Where can I buy the handsome little mounting for the front center bumper for three small American flags? Flags spread out 10:00 noon 2:00?

I used the flag holder for radiator cap and altered it for the front bumper.
Bratton’s sells them with flags

Same one that Snyders sells. Good to hear that you can modify it for the front bumper. Please explain how.

I flattened it and clamped it behind the bumper bars

I guess you could also use one of the bumper clamps. Or is that a bumper clamp?

Looks like the center bumper clamp.

It is the center clamp, but it’s holding the vintage license plate frame in front

Thanks for the reminder I needed to order one for our new Tudor. Get the flags on ebay too. I bought 100 for about $20 last year. Take some wilhold glue and paint about 1/8" of the back edge of the flags to keep them from fraying.
This one holds 5 but you could easily use it for 3 - FleaBay https://www.ebay.com/itm/16177422353...Bk9SR_LYmYHRZQ

These are the Flags I have for Tessie !

The staff's are 30" of 1/2" Alumium solid Rod. The Finial or top of the Staff is Solid Brass 2 1/4" high. I had bought the attachment points only to find they were too small so the machienst made them also. Flags are 12 1/4" High by 19" long with embroidered Stars. Strips are Double Stiched on the length and quadruple at the end.
