Barry Wolk Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I really appreciate clever license plates. Our personalized plates are mundane "Fun for G" and "Fun 4 B" but my FIL had a very strange sense of humor.His name was Nathan and everyone called him Nick. It was his 48th birthday. The "birthday" plates were on his car for a full year when a Georgia state trooper came to his house and confiscated them.Please post clever license plates.

Guest Randy Berger Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Best one I remember was a new Jaguar and it had the plate:Paw-PurrBut you have to sound it out and realize the price of a new Jag to really appreciate that the humor was on two levels.

Guest imported_CarFreak Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 For a long time our state was limited to 6 characters on plates. They just recently have started with 7. Thus:Friend who was a car salesman - EZMONYHad on my convertible before eligible for antique plates - TOPLES(the district judge & senator that were riding in the car during a parade asked me what that meant) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Peterson Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 I heard a story of a deep-pocketed collector who owned a Tucker. He proudly put the personalized EIGHT plate on his car. When asked what that meant, the owner said, "Eight cylinders!"Which would have been nice, except the Tucker only has six cylinders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Dobbin Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I have two plates that draw comments:On a 1966 Volkswagen, a German Tag, 66 VW BUG. The comment, "What year is it?"On a 1935 Buick, XXXV This one illustrates what's not being taught in schools anymore. I get questioned by the drooling masses about it being an "X rated car". Even when I ask how they identify Super Bowl games I get blank stares, so I just say: "yea, it's X Triple X rated". I guess calling them personalized plates is a good description.

Guest Skyking Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 There's a Metropolitan on ebay now and the California plate reads URUGLY2. I thought that to be quite clever...........We used to have alot of good plates here in RI untill one of our greedy governors raised the fees to $60.00 /year. But the kicker was, he wanted two years in advance. That ended the so-called vanity plates here. Now you see very few.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK Sr. Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Just got my newest vanity plate here in PA, $20.00 one time fee, "240DDDD" on my 1976 Mercedes 240 diesel. Kind of sounds like it's running???? Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
