Has anybody else ever thought of doing this?

think he is saying when the clip is at an angle like / and the front will be facing down so he wants the plate to pop outwards like | so you can still read it?.. i think i got it in me haed what hes tryin.. but not sure..

i love love love it

I think the hood would be gay.. But the back end has been cool for years... I actually wanted to do one in my rollpan that rotated all the way around so it would be the plate while driving then flip backwards and have sheetmetal there to hide it.. That was my idea a long time ago..

in the USA, I don't think having your plate up front is going to do you any good, your still going to get a improper display ticket for it. But don't let no one stop ya from trying it, hell most people don't agree with alot of ideas people do, but when they see it on a finished truck, it is nothing less than bad ass most of the time. Good luck.

What he is saying is that he wants to weld the hood to the fenders and make a tilt front clip. That means for some smarty pants out there, that he can still check his oil. The hood and front finders will tilt forward. This way he can still get to every thing.

As for my opinion. It is one of the cool old school things to do. I might be doing it to my next truck!

If you need any information on how to do it, then look through some lowrider sites or old LowRider mags. There are some good articles out there on this subject.

i think the tilt front clip would look nice i dont think i would put my licence plate in the hood but hey it different maybe paint a club logo or something like that so when you tilt it at a show you can see itkinda like the mother ship

I MADE A PLATE BOX LAST YEAR THAT FLIPED OUT LIKE A IN DASH SCREEN WITH AN ELECTRIC ACTUATOR THEN MY REAR END GOT SMASHED LIKE A WEEK LATER ALL THAT WORK FOR NOTHING LOL
