Luv the colour on your plate.. Much better than our plain black on white plates out here.

I have personalised plates ($550 worth for the privilege) I977 (1977 L48):p::

Keep on going and we will see you on the road for a special wave. :seeya

:auto:

Once u buy the plate its yours and doesnt cost anything. You can also change it between cars.

ie; if I sold my vette I can keep the plate and put on another car.

A lote of vette owners here have personalised plates.

Guys and gals in the club have ZR1, vetgirl, stingy, 25anv and others.

Not dumb questions, I didn't know about it 'till I moved to Nevada.

In Nevada, there are 3 choices for C3's. One is "Classic Vehicle", which is at least 25 years old and has not been modified. There is also "Classic Rod", which is a vehicle which has been manufactured more than 20 years ago, and can be customized, and finally, there is "Street Rod" which are vehicles manufactured since 1949 and have been customized.

Since mine is mostly stock, I chose the Classic Rod plates.

The cost is $36 initally, and $10 a year thereon, above all other fees.

I paid $106, including sales-tax, since this was the first time I registered the Vette since I bought it in 2000.

It should be about $50 now-on.

If you're more interestred, more info is at: http://www.dmvnv.com/platesclassic.htm


Enjoy,
David

I ahve a '78 Pace, and believe it or not, I applied for and got PACE VET (Illinois). I have told other Pace owners and they couldn't believe it. Sometimes the most obvious ones everyone figures have already been taken. :chevy :chevy
