PERSONALIZED LICENSE PLATES
- Thread starter cobra44

There are a lot of opinions on vanity, or personalized plates where some like em and some don't. I like mine and it took years for me to finally get my initials. Nothing special but I also get unique plates that cost extra. Mine come with an extra charge that helps support national parks. Sure they cost more but, when I think of the money I waste on some other things, this ain't bad.

Seinfeld episode:
Kramer ended up with a great plate, he went to pick up his new plate at the Registry and was given one that belonged to a proctologist.

I've had this tag on my 2004 Corvette Z06 for years.
Pretty easy to understand.

Years ago I saw a plate in Santa Fe with "MALPASO". Could have had something to do with Clint Eastwood's production company of that name, or maybe just a fan?

Wife and I were at dinner the other day and a Corvette passed by the window headed out of the parking lot. Glanced back and saw the plate read "WAS HIS".

Back during the national speed limit I tried for NOMO55 and was told it was not acceptable by the DMV.
Hope you're kidding....?

I remember when i was about 10 years i was in the backyard speaking to my grandfather. I was talking about what kind of car i would get when i was older..... My grandfather, looked around and said, Get the longest license you can find and no tattoos, you don't want anyone to remember you.....hmm....i always wondered if he had a second 'job' no one knew about...I also don't think he knew i wanted to be a cop.....
There was a Cobra running around Phoenix some years ago that sported NOTAKIT.

I always get one of Kentucky's conservation plates--the extra cost goes to our Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources for fisheries, game management, etc. But if I ever were to get a vanity plate (I won't) it would say "THUD". Or "CRUNCH". Might help deter tailgaters.

I had "DVC" for years. Jeff Cooper's Latin phrase: Diligentia - Vis - Celeritas for Accuracy - Power - Speed.

THE FAR SIDE cartoons
I haven't seen any Gary Larson cartoons in the paper for years. One that I remember is, GODZILLA is driving down the highway with New York city in his rear view mirror.
The license plate is,
I 8 N Y
His drawings are hilarious.

I have had several over the course of time. It is about the most unique and cheapest thing you can do to make your car stand out. Assuming you have a legal plate and with the different states allowing only so many spaces to use, the odds of seeing another car with your plate are very rare.
Obviously only a max of 50 are possible, but the odds say it will be much lower. My state (People's Republic of NY) allows up to 8 spaces and with that many spaces you can get a rather decent plate.
Going to large car shows over the years you will see most attendees have a special plate of some sort. Some are easy to figure out and some leaving you scratching your head. I went to the rather huge show Corvettes at Carlisle for may years and you see many people going through the lines of cars writing down some plates or now in the modern era they use a camera.
Some people think having special plates makes you more of a target for LEOs, but rest assured drive a high power Corvette and you attract their attention no matter what plate you have.

Larsen retired several years ago.
My daughter gave me a huge two-volume set of his entire work. I need to look at that again.
