California VINTAGE style license plates application
« on: January 04, 2013, 12:09:04 PM »
Legislation introduced the California Legacy License Plate program offering vehicle owners the opportunity to purchase replicas of California license plates similar to those issued in the 1950's, 1960's, and 1970's. The program requires a minimum of 7,500 pre-paid applications prior to January 1, 2015.

Legacy License plates can be ordered for any year model automobile, commercial vehicle, motorcycle, or trailer.

PERFECT for those 1960's and 1970's project bikes in California.

That's my dad's car, and he actually has the original yellow/black '51 plate.
