IF one were to need a new front plate to match his or her prized, original blue-and-yellow California plate, how might that person get a good replica of the existing rear plate made?
Maybe I should have written this in the "I have this friend.." voice... With all of the recent front-plate crackdowns, I suspect, once ticketed, you get stuck with two new plates. And I believe the only vintage plates you can retroactively fit are yellow with black lettering (circa 1956). It'd be a bummer to lose original 1973 plates. From what I understand, there was a cottage industry in SoCal serving the above purposes for the restoration community until the government (thank you for your efforts on vintage license plate recreation enforcement) arrested the perpetrators. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I suspect anyone still offering such services would be best served if their info was PM'd rather than posted... Thanks! pete |
