Couldn't believe it...
After all the post that I see of people taking the risk of getting a ticket verses running with a front plate, I had to pass this on.
I saw a Yellow Vette on base today that has a store bought plate that said "ol' yella".
It was the kind of plate you would expect to see on an old farm truck.
Yeah I know, to each their own, yada yada blah blah blah...
but it just looked so
Hopefully I can get a picture, or maybe its one of you guys and you can post one for me.
My wife said "maybe his daughter got it for him and he has to put it on." Alright, so I don't have all the facts, just thought some of you might get a kick out of it.

The movie was actually Old Yeller and was a fine one, but that's beside the point. I would have a hard time putting a plate like that on the front of my C5, but as has been said many, many times, to each his own.

Yeah, I like this area allot also. Been here two years and have decided I will probably retire here.
From: vettephysician "Was recently in Savannah....very nice, historic town, but hot as hell. Check out "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." Shot in and around Savannah, another Eastwood masterpiece. "
The heat HAS been oppressive. Nearly takes the pleasure out of doing anything outside. Tried to watch the movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil." but it was too slow and I have an extremely short attention span.
