Anyone had luck reassigning original blue California license plates, back on their
Vehicle ? I have both plates and title, showing they are from my car. I had not no luck at AAA or the DMV.

For those looking for blue/yellow plates (I found "630 JJH" for my 1974 914 six conversion with a 3.0L motor), below is some blue base license plate decoding information I discovered. Therefore, the year the license plate was issued is easily determined by the last three characters. @JeffBowlsby Original CA Blue/Gold License Plate list, We need info on all years 914s with original CA plates topic is a great resource to understand which characters belong to which years...determined "JJH" was close enough for 1974.

1969-87 BLUE BASE
10-6-69....."1969".....Type 1.....000 AAA - 700 LXU
May 75......"1975".....Type 2.....701 LXU - 999 WKZ
Dec.77....."DEC 78"...Type 3.....000 WLA - 999 ZZZ
4-16-80..."OCT 80"....Type 3a...1AAA000 - 1CQP896
Aug.81....."AUG 82"....Type 4....1CTH297 - 1SWC463

Description of Types:
Type 1 - Steel, thin legend, wide dies, blue back
Type 2 - Aluminum, wide legend, wide dies, blue back
Type 3 - Aluminum, wide legend, thin dies, blue back
Type 4 - As Type 3, but unpainted back
