Where to find vintage license plates

[robber6910]

Dan and Joe, from 1966 to 1972, NY used the blue background with orange lettering plates. There are different variations of the blue background (some appear darker whereas some appear lighter). As long as you have the correct plate (i.e. blue background w/orange letters) and your sticker tag matches the year your car was produced, you can use it.

I own a Historic plate company that make delaware license plates. I have had many dealings with license plate collectors. Your best bet would be Dave Lincoln in Kennett Square, pa. 610-444-4144

good luck

I have about 5 Manufacturer plates available from the sixties, some single, some pairs, all Michigan except for a single 68 Black California plate. Without looking I cant remember the years right off, I think 62, 65, 66, 68, and another I am not sure on year. Some are perfectly restored, others are near mint original. M plates are very difficult to find, much rarer then dealer, really adds a touch of class to your car. I will post later today with exact years, condition, prices, etc., if anyone is interested.
