CA DMV Heritage Plates, Black/yellow? Options

[Cairo94507]

Hi all - So the DMV here in CA has authorized and made available the black and yellow plates that were supplied on cars through 1969.

They never did receive enough interest, deposits, to authorize the production of the blue/yellow plates. They needed 7,500 deposits and fell short. They refunded my $50 deposit about 6 months ago after waiting 1 year for plates to be authorized.

So, now I am thinking "what would the black/yellow plates look like on my car?" I know they are not period correct since my car would have come with blue/yellow plates, but would black/yellow be cool? Heck, I am not even sure the DMV would allow that plate color on my '71....

Also, if it was originally or previously registered in CA with Blue/Yellow - & you can find those correct plates - then you can also re-register it back to those old plates. I can't recall at the moment what that DMV program is called ....

That is interesting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
The project car I bought a year ago came with the blue plates but was non op. It still is, but under my name now. I would like to be able to put back its original plates once I put it back on the road... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
