It really amazes me sometimes as to what "strikes a chord" with the listers
and which posts get virtually no response and which get tremendous response.
Black license plates is one that got more than I ever would have imagined.
Good basic question, though. For the record, my black plate was replaced by
a Nebraska plate, a Minnesota plate, an Oklahoma plate (which is still
bolted on the rear of the BJ8) and soon a Texas plate - as that is where I
live now. Maybe I should put my black plate on e-bay? Seems to be a lot of
interest on a simple stamped piece of rectangular metal painted black with
yellow letters. However, if it raises the value of the car $5,000 (as
stated as a possibility in another post....) perhaps I will keep it. The
only reason it is in the trunk is because I keep virtually everything, it
seems. Well, wishing you all a good Friday and happy Healeying over the
weekend! Stever

What is the significance of a "California black plate" car? People talk
about them as if they are somthing special. Thanks, JL
