:confused: Vanity plates are so personal - yours should be a reflection of you or some aspect of your life, vette related or not. What color is your vette? What are your hobbies besides the vette? Are you into sports? What kind of job do you have? If you really can't decide on one yourself I'm sure some of us can come up with one for you. It's just hard to do without knowing you or about you. Give us more to go on and we'll go! :D

Keep in mind it's got to make sense. They're no fun if they aren't immediately readable or fairly easy to figure out. I have no idea from the second item in your post what your vette can do. Does it have something to do with parking it?

OK, think I got it, Viper Killer?

Well im 19 years old and just bought my 1977 Vette from an old lady ( Well not that old, only 54. ) And It is Corvette-Tan and all orig. She was the only owner and drove it occasionaly. The Vette was garage kept and never abused. The 85K miles on it are all orig. and the car hums like the first day. I like to Mountian Climb, Run, Work hard for things I love. I work as a web designer for saweddings.com. I want my Vette to be a Viper Killer. Thus VPRLKR. Can you help me out with another name?

I take it VIPERKLR is already taken? If so, you can use a variation of the spelling such as VYPERKLR or VYPRKILR or VIPERKILR.

congrats on your new vette! :cheers:

Personally, I would not want to put the name of a different car on my plate, even if I "hated" the other car. Why compliment Viper by naming him on your plate? And besides, with an all-original 77 you are not a VPRKLR!! :lol:

how bout 77HVN ? How many letters + spaces do you get?? :) MJ


DMV turned me down for JACKUL8 even tho I am always late! :lol:

It's 8 spaces allowed unless you are personalizing a plate with some other special emblem on it that takes up space. Jack, I bet they would accept URL8JACK, but that probably wouldn't appeal to you.

All I can say is if you put ANY of the following:
"2FAST4U"
"2QUIK4U"
"VIPRKLR"
"4REKLR"

You better has some power to back it up because people will try to race you. If you have a stock '77, I would NOT suggest "VIPRKLR", but that's me. Every Viper owner you see will embarass you first chance they get.

Be creative though. :cheers:

VPRLKR :confused: Looks like "Viper Licker" or "Viper Liker" to me :jester :jester

Personal plates are very personal choices. I wanted something generic for my Vert because it's very original and not necessarily fast....but on my C5 I wanted something arrogant.

If your '77 is stock you've got a long way to go to be a Viper Killer!! I wouldn't get that plate just yet. :cheers:
