License plates

Post by willowbilly3 »

I thought I'd do a survey from stat to state on who alllows YOM (year of manufacture) license plates.
I ran into a dealer Sat. with lots of nice sets that were reasonably priced. He had a bunch of Nebraska back to the early 50s and quite a variety of other states too.
Great ideas have always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.

you have to have a up to date tag here but you can get personalized plates to run legally. otherwise you have to put originals on the front.

Florida allows YOM plates. They have to inspect them first. I have been looking for a good 1967 Florida plate, preferably with the g/k classification on it.

California allows YOM plates on 1962 and earlier vehicles only.

I think that anything in Oregon after 63 or 4 has to have updated plates if replated. One of my car's plates are not the correct blue/yellow and have found the correct plates many times at swap meets but last I checked you can NOT transfer plates unless they are older than 63 or 64. That should change!!! IMO :bs:

Actually willow they still are using the county designations.

If you happen to find one from county 5 I would be very interested in it.

It may have been....the guy I got mine from had a small 12 foot enclosed trailer and was under the trees. He also had some guns for sale and other misc stuff. He had a ton of plates out but no 70. I asked and he produced some clean 70 plates from the trailer for $20 bucks :-)
