Not that I am aware of. It was in a box of misc. parts I purchased.Top one
The lower one looks cobbled together?
The lower one is the style that was OEM on my '76, but only the "frame". The vertical bracket looks like it was replaced at some point, which explains the fasteners. It should be more of a stamped C-channel.

its yours for $25.00 plus shippingThat might be an early/25 bracket, I think the dimpled ones like @zerotreedelta has might be the intermediate between that and the T one. @tstepp920 I might be interested in the early one if selling. It does look worked on a bit though.
Mine is a 10/75 manufacture, but a 76MY. That matches your dates.I show 4/76 for change to the simple T style. I only have one of the later T style. The rest are the early style. I know for a 76 and for years before these were painted black not pewter. My T style not sure where I got it also black with the sticker will the part number still attached. During the early to mid sixties the back license plate bracket were body color but not sure that was true on the front. These were all black I picked up. Never seen one painted pewter.
