Default Re: Ca, Re-issuing Black Plates

Yep, now there will be a wave of "revisionist history" with cars getting "original" black CA plates. Now the question will be if a seller/flipper has old registrations for the car that prove its black-plate heritage. I guess overall it's a good thing though. With my '55, it got its black plates in '63 and if I wanted to re-register it there I could put them back on and avoid the specific 1955 YOM requirement. But yes, "black plate car" will now lose some of its cache.
