Anybody sporting cool vanity plate?

I just saw: UNDRDR - Under Radar, maybe? Underwear Doctor? UN double doctor?

My personal favorite was a big red land rover and the plate said SNDROVR

Long time ago I was checking out a truck with plate CZCHICK and the driver was fat, bearded, bold man

For years, early morning’s on the way to work, I’d often end up following a white Corvette, driven by a very nice looking lady, about 45 years old. This was long before vanity plates were common in Ontario. “1LU V69”. I swear.

I have this one. Got it off ebay some years back.
It came still in the original envelope, brand new, never issued for some reason.
However I can't use it on my K3 since in Texas you can only register a vintage plate that is the same year as the bike.

I've Thought About Getting One That Said, "Addicted To Speed", BUT, They Might Get The Wrong Idea Though. OR It Might Put The Law, On Alert, To Watch
Out For Me, Kicking The Accelerator Down. Don't Need That! I've Already Had To Slow It Down Some, As My Luck Of Not Having Any Blue Lights Around,
When I Was "Sailing", Was Getting To Be Less & Less. "Had Some Pretty Good Runs, In The Past, W/O Having To Pay For It" Guess All Good Things, Have A
Limit To Them, Eh??

Spotted on the same day, different places:
On a 'vette: "MINE"
On an H-D: "NOTHERS"

Back in the early 90's I followed a beautiful Merc 560SL with "WAS HIS" plates. The driver looked pretty content.

Lady we know, on her minivan:

MDWIFE

My niece and nephew both graduated as eye doctors and I got them souvenir plates:

IDOC and EYEDOC

Inspired by Seinfeld no doubt

My sister used to work at the tax office (where we get our plates) and collected some of the old plates. I think this one could easily be issued to everyone in Texas.

Saw this recently on another website...

From my observation, very often Corvettes have vanity plates.

The other day I saw LIVELRG

My 750F has a White Sox plate that reads SOHC (only 4 letters/numbers on the motorcycle specialty plates). Years ago my '71 Bronco's plate was GDYUP71

Coworker in Ohio was a big Ohio State Buckeyes fan and got OSU personalized plates for CR-V that read BUCS.
Weekend of Michigan - OSU football game I played a prank on her with a few strips of white reflective tape modifying the B to an S. She and her hubby were not amused.
My manager and friend sat on 2nd floor window office that overlooked part of the parking lot that day. I dropped by his office after I did the deed and asked if he could see her license plates. I could read it from his office. It was about 100-120 feet away. He opened a desk draw and pulled out binoculars and read it for a few moments. Turned back to me and I smiled. Told him I wouldn’t let her drive off with it that way. Likely to get you in a road rage incident in Columbus, OH as the rivalry was fierce.
I dare say they remembered that simple mod for a long time…
I wasn’t a Michigan fan, just poking a bear over how stupid sports rivalries are…

Wife is from MI, rivalry between Michigan and Buckeyes I learned about in early days of our dating.

Tody I saw Camaro with plate:

COPBHND

And in local TSC parking lot I saw:

NVDRZIM

In czech it reads Nevydržím - means I can't hold on - but the owner told me it says Invider Zim.

I had a brand-new 1972 El Camino that needed that plate...

On my CB chopper project I'm going to run a year plate 1973 that was a good Ebay find.
On my 61 GMC it is also tagged as historical and had a 1961 year plate.

Good buddy of mine always gets a vanity plate on his hot rods(imports) MSTBNCE was his last with a windshield decal that said must be nice after everyone kept saying it to him when i bought a fully build street legal drift car. dude works like 108 hours a week He earned it.
He's since sold it and now has a Nissan R33 Skyline. He has a vanity on it but It escapes me what it says ATM.

Up the road from me is an SUV with RSWIPE (I think he works for a toilet paper company).

In the 80's my wife and I were on a bus near Anaheim CA and saw a little pink hatch with the plate LIL MISS. A week later in Denver CO we saw that plate on "America's Most Wanted". Someone murdered a young woman and stole her car, somewhere in the Southern states.
