I had a 43D for compact Okaloosa County on my Kharman Ghia and my MGB-GT, but I ended up with a straight 43 for my ‘Cuda.
]]>Bryan, I remember the old numbering system from when I was in college in Miami in the early ’70’s. Dade County was “1” since, I guess, it had the largest population, and the weight class on the bigger cars like Cadillacs and Lincolns was “ww”. I remember being in a traffic jam on Miami Beach once and all you could see were “1ww” plates for blocks.
]]>I lived in New Mexico twice; 1977-1978 and 1995-2001. When I moved back to New Mexico I thought it would be cool to see if I could get my old number back, and the state happily allowed me to get it as a vanity plate. The number was meaningless, but now I have two NM plates in my collection thirty years apart with the same number. Little things amuse little minds, I guess 🙂
I’ve thought about getting a vanity plate for the Mustang, but the current plate serial ends with “FTS,” and how could I get rid of a plate that says “Fuck This Shit.”
]]>I have a cousin who lived outside Coeur d’Alene, but he may have moved by now as he wanted to be far away from people.
]]>A lot of states, including Texas, have license plates that proclaim them the “State of the Arts.” A hasty reading, or dyslexia, or an anagram fixation, could so easily turn it into “Taste o’ the Farts” …
]]>This plate at least has a sense of color, although the maroon letters don’t get it.
