Yellow and black plates were available for part of 1969. The blue and yellow plate started showing up around Sept of 1969.

Still got the California black plates that came with my used '64 in '66. Lovingly polished and waxed all these years!

And the original General whitewall spare tire and wheel. Probably has 500 miles max from the few times I used it.
