Got a call from the museum to verify my name to go on the plaque!! The good news for me is that my order has at least gotten that far. Tells me that something is finally happening on my VY Z51!!

My dad got the call back in June to confirm the name spelling back when we had a TPW of 7/8 before all that got scratched so im assuming they are gearing up and since we got the call along time ago ours might be towards the front

Wow that's awesome.

Do they replace the plaque with a generic one when you resell it? I don't think I would like my name on a used car floating around out there.

anyone know if you can buy the plaque for the ~$200 after the fact? or only when ordering? (at 3000 now so too late to add)...

i guess after the fact would be ideal to "remove and keep" as well as you would still have the original "stingray" one as well.

Not sure, but I think this plaque is one you can hang on the wall, not the one on the dash. That one is a different option, not related to Museum delivery. Again, not sure.

I was told that the part with your name can be poped out and replaced with a generic plaque.
