Nor me, Ralph. My car is a very early one. All I have is the stamping on the front drivers side frame rail, and a sticker on the cockpit side of the firewall high center with the body number. I never had a plate. Hope this helps.

My car was older than these other guys and I had one. In fact I've still got it!
I had a new one made at a trophy shop, very cheaply, under $10 as I recall.
Just provide them with the art work on a disc. They could even blow it up if you want.

I'm hanging in there, Ralph. The car is still in Michigan. I'm hopeful it'll be down here soon!

Default Vin Plate

Doug, good to hear you're feeling ok. I had surgery in January as well. Pretty extensive, however all was ok. Going to take some time to heal, but I'll get there. Any idea when you car will arrive?

That's my original plate. The repro looked just like it except I added the CCX to the serial number.Thought it was cooler at the time. Plate is just .050" aluminum, 4x2". I think I used Paint or some similar real basic program to recreate it. Just pick the right fonts,place the writing, draw some lines and you're done. The trophy place ingraved the numbers and printed the tag. Even supplied the metal. Easy
To get fancy you could laquer the plate.

Wow, I haven't seen the car in so long I can't remember!

I think it's #113, but don't hold me to it.
