>>>That's pure BS, Jack. All Panteras were sold new in the USA with provisions for mounting both plates, and all bumpers had provisions for the brackets. The L models used a different bracket. Also the rear plate attached to a bracket and the bracket bolted to the car; most people just bolt the plate to the car today. 

All three are listed in both the Ford and De Tomaso parts books, and they can be bought new from Wilkinson (photos on his site) and probably used from most other dealers.
