Hi, Rohan. Given that your car is a =E2=80=9956, if it was originally =
registered in CA it would have had black on yellow plates. The yellow =
on black plates replaced them in =E2=80=9963, if memory serves. You =
can order year of manufacture plates from the DMV, though I needed to =
get a supervisor to help me as the clerk was unfamiliar with them (not =
surprising, given the low volume of requests they likely get). =20
=20
If you want to retain the black plates, I=E2=80=99d suggest contacting =
Darryl=E2=80=99s License Plate Restoration. I=E2=80=99ve had good =
success with him.

Apologies if this has already been discussed, but I found this today and =
as an owner of an original =E2=80=9Cblack plated=E2=80=9D California =
car. I have mixed feelings on this one. Firstly it is worth reading up =
on the announcement and links:
=20
Classic California License Plates to Hit Streets this Summer: =
https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/pubs/newsrel/newsrel15/2015_41
CA DMV: https://www.dmv.ca.gov/portal/dmv/detail/legacyplates/index
=20
So why the mixed feelings, well original black plates had some value and =
meaning - the car was an original California car. Unfortunately my =
plates have really deteriorated, and after a few steep driveways (you =
know how low our cars are) I have bent them in half one by one until =
they broke in half. I only ever had one plate on the rear and swapped it =
=E2=80=A6 the current one is hanging on by a thread. So I was looking to =
see if someone would reproduce them and I remember a link to someone who =
=E2=80=9Cunofficially=E2=80=9D remade them published on this list a few =
years ago. These new ones will reportedly use the same dye press tooling =
as the originals out of Folsom Prison (not sure where I read that), but =
unlike the original these will have a modern reflective coating and more =
importantly be available for use on any vehicle, both old and new, or =
car, truck or motorcycles. I know how I feel about a Prius with black =
plates!
=20
So what I really want to do is replace my plates with the same number =
etc with an original look, or do I want to give up on that and bite the =
bullet for a vanity plate with the new black?
=20
What does everyone think of this?
