Vintage CA black plates

[cobrasnake]

Saw a new black/yellow sequential plate on a Cobra yesterday. The plate was six digits but not 3 and 3 - it was an odd configuration that I promptly forgot. The font is very similar to the original but appeared more slender, presumably to allow for 7 digits. While I rubbed the upper right label box searching for an indented "63", I did not feel such an indentation. It was daytime so I can't comment about the reflectorized yellow but the color pretty much matches the original. My guess is that the plate was aluminium, not the original steel.

Randy, I believe Rodney provided the answer but yes you can order the personalized sequence you already have - the form is just a little tricky.

I too received the 8-12 week notice and had initially advised of my preferred DMV office for pick up. Oh what fun, no doubt gonna have to make an appointment to pick up the plates (and given them the old white ones).
