I was looking for something to kill the bugs in my trees when I found an old TN in the shed next to some Diazinon. Pm me your address and I will send it to you. (the plate, I have not found anything that kills the box elder bugs like Diazinon
.)

Not a huge thing, but when I got my first vette, it was during the disco wars of the late 70's. When I arrived at the weekly d-n-d, I was telling some guys I'd just bought the Vette. One of the clowns decided I was gonna be just like his snotty neighbor with a Vette, so the name started there. By the end of the night, the whole bar was calling me, "Mr. Snob". The name held took on something of a life of its own
both at school and work. When I got my 1st vanity plates, all my choices were taken or disallowed, so I fell back on this one. Now, my plates are an old family number held by my grandfather, dad, now me.
PM your mailing info, and I'll send one of them.

Just a suggestion, but maybe you ought to solicit pictures of the cars with the plates in question on them. Regardless of make or model, that would be pretty cool to have pics of the cars on the wall, with the plates on the ceiling.
