Under the Forum Topic of 'Members 914 Pictures' on page 15
I posted a picture of a U.S. run of license plates all with the number 914.
In my quest to assemble this collection I have accumulated a few 300 extras.
If you are lucky enough to have the initals that are the same
as the letters one of my duplicate plates, it is yours for FREE!
Post you 3 initials on this topic page, and you could be a lucky winner.

Come on. You guys aren't trying hard enough.
No matches yet. A couple are close.
I have a JFK, CCN, CGC, LJC, RAB, JMF, SA.
I forgot to think how much work was involved on my end.
I will have to get my list in order to do a more efficient search.
I will also be able to check for other related options.
I figured the odds are 1:5000 for a perfect match.
Don't feel bad. I don't have a JEP for myself.

Sorry Andy No ASS plate is possible.
No DMV will issue a plate with 'obscene' words.
If I did have such a plate I think you would have to fight Brad for it.
His custom member title says he is the AssHole around here.

Posted by: Dave Cawdrey Apr 3 2003, 01:56 AM

Son #2 missed with EHC and ESC
But hit the target with EC.

Let me know your address and a slightly scuffed 1990 Rhode Island plate # EC-914 will soon be in your mail box.

CONGRATULATIONS

See how easy that was.
OK! Who's next?

Ladies and Gentlemen. I am delighted to inform you that we have another lucky winner. Dagdal 1967 will be receiving a white on red 1991 Arizona 'Grand Canyon State' # 4DG-914 in Vg-Ex condition. There is a sticker on the back of the plate indicating that it was once owned by a collector from Dallas Texas. Coincidently Doug's profile says that he is soon to be moving to Dallas. HUMMH! One birthday, One new resident. Ya gotta be lucky if ya wanna win. Yes I know that the two fortunate ones got plates with only two letters. I promise that I go through my list and search for any possible combination and permutations based on the info. you provide. Example: I would call it a match for the DYL plate if I knew your name was Darryl. Some plates have 2 letters, most have 3. Some are all numbers and nobody wins.

Doug - To claim you prize just let me know your address. I also invite you to make a donation to this SUPER SITE 914world.com by using the Paypal link found in the top right corner of every page. I am making this shameless solicitation without the concent or knowledge of the fine folks who have provided this great forum for us 914 fanatics. Any winners in this FREE plate exercise are under no obligation what-so-ever. I just want to share with all my new friends.

Posted by: tahoward Apr 3 2003, 02:55 PM

TAH...unlucky at cards, etc.

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 3 2003, 02:57 PM

air six - YES! it would have been A LOT easier. But not as much FUN! It is a game. Plus I didn't want anybody to try to claim a plate just because they wanted one. (not that anybody here would ever do something like that) Also many of the 'extra' plates are not exact duplicates. And some have more value to me than others. But if I knew that they would be a cherished 914 memento in a new home I was willing to part with them. When the activity dies down on this topic I will post a list of some of the spares to spread around that will be availabe for just sending me the postage fee. The postage alone to give away all the plates would pay for several sets of tires. I did not aquire the plates free of charge, but I am happy to be able to donate them to my teener friends because I trust they will be appreciated more being proudly displayed in your garage than they are sitting in a box in mine. I remember what joy I got when I started this collection several years ago with each new found treasure.

I trust I have made a few of you very happy with some 914 plates. I hope everybody else had a little fun.

Hey Racer....ever go to the NASCAR race in Vegas?? I work the NASCAR garage there, here at California, and Sears Point, too..........Dad

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 4 2003, 07:02 PM

I worked on a safety truck one year and pit lane fire crew (the worst seat in the stadium) another. Same for the Indy Cars. Been there done that. I get dizzy at NASCAR events. I get even more confused if I am on the outside of the track. The bikes were a lot of fun when the used to race in Vegas. Those guys are CRAZY! I really enjoy flagging when the American LeMans Series comes to town. To bad there are more people in the pits than in the stands. It is great racing and some fantastic cars.

Posted by: Dad Roberts Apr 4 2003, 07:18 PM

Know what ya mean....when the Indy cars come to Fontana, it's a circus....EVERYBODY in the pits and garage area. NASCAR has a handle on that now with their new lights in the garage area. Lights come on......standard garage passes must leave. Anywho, just thought I would ask.........Dad

It was too bad I couldn't keep them.

Posted by: anthony Apr 5 2003, 07:23 PM

They weren't personalized plates either. The DMV person pulled these plates out of the middle of the stack for the PO and he didn't even ask them to do it. The DMV in Nevada must hire nicer employees than they do in CA.

Posted by: bernbomb914 Apr 5 2003, 07:46 PM

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 5 2003, 07:55 PM

You just got lucky. I think that there might be two nice ones in Nevada.
I'm not sure. I always end up in the other line.
Nice and/or knowledgeable do not seem to be requirements to get the job.

Thanks to all of you who have played along and attached photos of your 914 cars and plates.
They are all great and I really enjoy seeing them.

My race car is without a plate but my permanent number is 419.
That way it looks like 914 when I spin.

bernbomb914 I have only one question to ask.
What is your mailing address?

As far as what it is worth. That is for you to decide.

The rules of the game are changing.
There is a thread nailed to the top of the feature request on the BBS
by one of our brother teeners who needs our help.
Later this week (when the details are all worked out)
A large group of 914 license plates will be made availabe to anyone who wants one.
Donations will be accepted/required to help purchase a wheel chair and van for korijo.

(Sorry about the poor quality photo but it is getting dark here in Vegas)

First off let me say thanks to so many of you for playing my free plate game. The FUN continues with the same rules as originally posted. The generosity of all you teeners is fantastic. Bribery is not neccessry to encourage you to make a donation for korijo's wheelchair fund. While it is not part of the contest requirements I do want to ask that if there are any winners (past or future) who have not yet donated - PLEASE do so!

cavwpguy did you see my post on page 6 of this thread
regarding you choice of several R/B 914 plates.
Let me know?

acox914 I have a AAC-914 from New Hampshire
if that is close enough for you?

Glad to hear that some of the plates have arrived.


Who's next?

Posted by: Jenny Apr 8 2003, 02:44 PM

I've got CA plate JENS 914. Do you have any other states??

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 8 2003, 03:11 PM

I have PORSCHE vanity plates from 12 states with various phonetic spellings.

I only have four 914 vanities. JOLS 914 from Arkansas,
UGLY 914 from California, VW 914 from Minnesota
and A BAD 914 from Illinois.

There are a few regular 914's up for grabs in the free plate contest
where the letters just happen to spell a name. (no I'm not telling)

Posted by: tmp914 Apr 8 2003, 03:55 PM

cavwpguy - your plate is in the mail.
That makes a dozen winners so far.

Go ahead! Try your luck. (if you're not afraid of being #13)

Hawk - what's your last name?
I don't think there is much competition for any of the plates with a Z on them.
Maybe I can find something that might be close.

Anybody with a Q or a X out there?
Give me something to work with.

I'll not list my 3 step-kids. Short of these two, do you have a Colorado plate left? Love to have one if so.

Posted by: Lawrence914-6 Apr 9 2003, 08:54 AM

On my first 914, when I lived in Washington State, I had the plate "914".

I wish I had kept that plate, but I let it go to the guy I sold it to.

Posted by: mr914 Apr 9 2003, 10:00 AM

The 3 signifies county in Nebraska

Posted by: mr914 Apr 9 2003, 10:02 AM

Had that plate number for a few years...

Had a lot of people at PCA events ask me what the 3 ment in my personalized plate.

I told them it was standard issue.

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 9 2003, 11:58 AM

Hawk - I have two good choices for you.
Minnesota RKZ-914 or Colorado AAZ8914.
Great score with the Nebraska 9146.
It is very difficult to find that extra special number.

Ginter - I'll get back to you on the Colorado request.

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 10 2003, 12:22 AM

Sincere thanks to all of you who have donated for our ALS poster child.
So far 14 free plates have been sent to lucky teeners.
Only 13 count as contest winners 'cause one was the 914 with the wheel chair logo that went to korijo.
So that means the next winner will be # 14.
And around here 14 is a very special number.
So lets do this Vegas style and double down.
The next winner also gets the special edition plate pictured below. GOOD LUCK!

KORIJO - If it was anybody else but you the answer would be NO. The VW 914 will be in the mail. ENJOY!

BRUCE - please don't tell my Parole Officer that I kept all these license plates.
I don't want to go back to 'the Big House'. Don't worry. I have been rehabilitated.

HLB for my dad. my son has the same initials as well.

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 14 2003, 04:17 PM

acox914 - I want to see your ID to back-up your recent request.
Nice try. Sorry but I don't have any of those.
I also do not have HOT-914, PCA-914, RED-914, THE-914 or 914-SIX.
The second 914 plate I ever got was LUV-914 and it is still one of my favorites.

Posted by: VegasRacer Apr 14 2003, 05:39 PM

WINNER * WINNER * WINNER

markb I am not the one to judge if JMF is really your better half. But I do know who the LUCKY half is! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Just send me your address and this plate plus the bonus Nevada PORSCHE plate are yours.

After so many new members made their first post on this thread,
I am happy that one of the newbies was a winner.

Posted by: markb Apr 14 2003, 06:52 PM

WooHoo! Very cool! I'd like to thank the Acadamy.......

My girlfriend is going to be very happy with me. Plus the bonus plate! The walls above both of our desks will now be graced with cool lic plates. THANKS!!! Mark

VegasRacer,
The MN plate arrived and is a very big hit with my 10 year old co-pilot. Thank you very much. It sits over the 914 parking space in the garage now. Quite a collection you have amassed (and shared). Sure beats paper clips!

Also, I've never done it before...
how does one go about putting whatever over there to the left?
Some of you have a picture of a car, one of you have a Babe kneeling in
front of a car. How do you put a picture over there?

How's it looking for a plate for me?

Sorry Steve. As much as I would like to help out a local - you crapped out just like the other recent contestants.

I would like to give myself a special prize for having this, the 200th post on this thread.

Please stay tuned - some time next week I will be providing a list or photo of some of the extra 914 plates that will be available for purchase. The 'free plate contest' will continue. Since the frequency of request has dwindled, I want to make it possible for some of you who have asked (and were not winners) to get a plate of your very own.

Posted by: seanery Apr 27 2003, 09:46 AM

All out, no problem.
I like the race car, got any more pics you can post in the 914 members rides?

VegasRacer,
I bet this thread hangs around as long as just about any other. People love free stuff!
It's really awesome that you did this!!!

Posted by: Aaron Cox Apr 27 2003, 03:27 PM

yeah, me too....i applaud your effort of making license plates available and to have fun with it too.

keep up the good work!

Posted by: markb Apr 27 2003, 04:13 PM

I agree. Thanks, again Vegasracer. The plates look very nice hanging on the office wall.
