Here in CA you can get repro black plates with up to 7 characters, but I looked and 311 LDY is still available and though I think these repro ones are silly, the actual black plates to get reassigned would cost about 6-7x as much so Im considering it

It was chosen for me. :D With too many other projects going at the time, went the lazy route when I bought this roadster. Bought it as it stands.

I have mixed feelings about the stripes but all good, love my car either way with/without.

I lucked into getting a set of 1967 plates for my roadster GBN 141. Great Britain NOT 141. Only a roadster owner would understand. The plates are supposed to be white but mine have been sitting in the barn for much too long!

Not a good plate for anyone you like, but I couldn’t pass up photographing the second one. The deer head ball cover is a nice touch
