Passing along a set of California Blue Plates to any 914 member that will clear them with the DMV and register them on their car.

I believe the The D series lettering to be period correct for a '70-'71 vehicle when registered new.

These were given to me by a fellow 914 World Member and I have decided to go with personalized plates instead as my car originated out of state so no need for these.

Here is the link for the CA Year of Manufacture Application to re-register:

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/wcm/connect/8...pdf?MOD=AJPERES

I will ship these at N/C to the first member that WILL promise to register these for use on their vehicle and and not turn them for a profit.

All I ask is that you update the listing with a photo of the plates on your car with the registration (with personal info omitted)

Who wants em???

I have a set of Blue plates that were given to me.
So these can be re-activated to a different car? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Is it as simple as going to the DMV and swap these instead of my current ones? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
Any idea of the fees involved? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)



Yes, as of January 2016 all of the Blue plates can be reused once they are "DMV Cleared" by filling out the appropriate forms as per the below link:


https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/wcm/connect/8...pdf?MOD=AJPERES


If you are a AAA member, you can go through them for DMV services and they can answer all questions

These plates in every day condition sell on Ebay between $75 & $125/pair and restorers are asking $350 a pair.

If I am not mistaken you have a '73 model year and the period correct ones are letters G through K.



Thank you for the information, this is great! I will check at the AAA office. Not between G & K but close. Even comes with the patina...




I was advised that there was indeed some overlap into the L-- series in late '73! You my friend are mostl likely " period correct"!

Call me when you get back from your vacation and we'll go driving (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)



Like Pete000 "L" plate, I'm pretty sure my "LIV" came from a 74 car... Still tempting, I like the "LIV". Fun stuff.

Leaving tomorrow and our rental in Italy is supposed to be a Fiat 500L (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) economic yet family compatible, hopefully it will be standard . Will miss my daily drive even if it's been really hot recently, morning and afternoon foothill scenic commute are just fun.

Will get in touch when I'm back.

I should have kept the blue plates when I sold my '76 530i ... could have used them on my '75 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

My '66 912 has blue plates (and the tag from the last year it was driven) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Working on it though ... just removed all of the calipers this past week for restoration at PMB (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Attached Image

Maybe I can transfer those to my '75 and get retro black plates for the '66 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)



... and my wife's '71 still has it's original blues too ... David Bowie plates (Ziggy from Mars) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I had to turn in the blue plates that were on my 911 when I got black retro plates for it last year - but that's OK, the new plates read 64 911 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

Yeah, my goof ... I purchased the '66 in 1988 and wasn't thinking straight. Mixing up '70's 914 with '60's 911s & 912s (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

Thats an I there in Seinfelds 9I4 6 GT.

I know because I tried to register 914 6 GT and it took to the clerk talking to her manager to figure out why it wouldn't let it through even though it wasn't taken in the system.

THIS. This is good news! Tried several times w DMV to get these reinstated. And now I just have to fill out a form!

These were issued for my 72 when I purchased it new in May of 1972. Even have a little patina, didn't have the front one on much.

I got new plates around 91 when I went for re-registration and they told me I would I would have to pay for all the years since I last registered it...about $600 with penalties if I wanted to keep them. But I could get new plates for much less. Duh (read, idiot!)...never knew the originals would become so good to have...

Kudos to who posted this first.

@914 Opted not to use these after all so they are once again available as an X-Mas Gift to the first 914World Member for the asking. Same rules above apply except for the BS about seeing a registration!
