Need a matched pair.....yellow background, black numbers with "56" in the upper right corner.

Theres a company that sells them with any letter/numbers you want. Try:

I had a new blue Cal front plate made up

Joe Bob
Yeah....I know of them. But I'm looking for originals that have fallen off the DMV record so that I can use them on the new 356 project I have....
jim_hoyland
If the car has a current license plate number-or is about to get one- you could have those numerbers/letters embossed on the aftermarket set?

Just a thought

yeah, done that with a personalised plate, already...it's on my 911 in blue with yellow letters. At 75 per plate, plus the annual fee it's a bit pricey.

However, no such animal as a personalized yellow background plate and using modern CA numbers there are too many......they only had six...3 letters and 3 numbers like JJF 317....my old VW bug plate.... blink.gif

Hmmmm, sounds like Mikee is going CW on us. biggrin.gif

Hardly....I just like things different. Crappy reflective CA plates aren't high on my list.

I have a matched set in original paint.
They are in Ventura as well, so you would have to wait for me to head up there to dig em out.
Aaron Cox
mike,

i emailed my uncle....
"they usually run $150-300 depending on condition. They're actually 56 plates with a 58 sticker. I can find a set for you."
brer
You may find that a little metal tab with the year on it is needed to be "right"

In the mail.....anyways....if some one has a set that they use as a wall hanger....all I need is to borrow them....have DMV inspect them, register that number, they can have the plates back...I'll get repros made....
