Re: Ca, Re-issuing Black Plates

[parkbrau]

That might be the case why my plates are not etched with 63.....regarding the North/South theory.
I did buy a Dec Sticker off E-Bay, so thanks for that lead.

Went to DMV today to have my plates re issued. For those who would like to know what to bring in order to be prepared here is what I went through .

A) Bring in both plates that you are going to have re-issued
B) Make sure one has the model year of your car reg sticker showing . In my case 1969 ( I may be able to help if someone needs one)
C) If existing plates on car are generic bring them in too. If they are personalized then you can keep those
D) Bring in current insurance on vehicle
C) Bring in current registration
E) They want a Xerox copy of the plate so if you can do that yourself or scan it and print this will also save you some time. Took the clerk 10 min and 8 copies to get one she liked. She came back and went through all 8 copies.
F) Don’t forget your drivers license. I saw a few people not be able to produce their license when asked.

Here are the forms you will need . Form REG352 is the YOM application . You will also use this same form , but a separate copy, for a “ Release of Interest” from the previous plate owner if the plates are not cleared or out of the DMV system.

I was also requested to fill out a “ Statement of Facts” DMV form REG256 .

http://www.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg256.pdf

I filled out the top of the backside of the form with my current Lic plate number , VIN and year and make info then used the section G on the backside and typed the following . Signed the bottom , section H .

“ I would like to re assign plate ###### to my 1969 Camaro . The plate is a black and yellow California plate that is period correct for my car . “


Being DMV these procedures may differ. The DMV clerk sitting next to the lady helping me looked at me and shook his head as if to say , “ why is she making that so hard? She doesn’t know what she is doing” . So be prepared

Does anyone have a 68 sticker I could buy? I have the plates but took off all the stickers some time ago.

There are plenty on ebay, prices are based on condition. They peel these off from old plates, these license plate dealers have been waiting a long time for this! Ebay tags
