Original question (with more data...) o My '69 Squareback lived in L.A. & had black & gold plates when I bought it in 1997. (Curiously, the plates have "63" stamped in the upper right, so they were probably off an older car before appearing on the '69 -- which I bought from the first owner. These plates were presumably on the car for its first 29 years.) o It's been in Michigan, registered in Michigan, with MicÈüptle & plates for the past two years. o I just moved back to California, and need to register it here. I would like to reinstall the black & gold plates that I removed from it two years ago. Apparently, the best I can do is walk into the DMV with the old plates, the current MI reg & title, and perhaps an old California registration and beg for mercy. Thom Fitzpatrick believes, though, that I haven't got a chance since the plates are actually too old to have been correct when the car was new. I won't draw attention to the "63" stamped in the plates. This may just end up being my opportunity to buy modern vanity plates. Oh well. (What do vanity plates cost?) -Greg ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web! Visit http://www.vwtype3.org/list/
