Blank Contemporary Vin Plate
Looking for a blank Contemporary Vin plate to mount on wall plaque along with picture of car for my den wall. I spoke to Peter Bayer and he did not believe the company that originally manufactured. them was still in business. I know it is a shot in the dark, but I thought I would try anyway. Any help or ideas are appreciated. Thanks....

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.

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. |

vin plate
Rick, is the pic you sent the original or the one that was made up? Where do you get the art work?
CCX-1984, do you have a pic of the plate that was made for you?
Thanks.....

Mine is also an early one, registered as 1983. CCX 3041, it has a plate, which looks identical to the one Rick posted, just a different order to the numbers

Rick, I don't have access to any software like that nor would I know how to use it. Do you think a plaque or trophy shop could copy the detail from the photo you sent?

MS Paint comes bundled with most computers and is easy to use. If I can do it, anybody can. Childs play for a trophy shop.

Contemporary Blank Serial number plate
I know this is an old thread, but I have just completed my prototype Contemporary Cobra and wanted a plate for the foot box. I took the jpeg of the plate above and used it as an overlay for creating the artwork in Adobe Illustrator. I then had PlaqueMaker.com make two out of Gold colored aluminum, $15 each. One was for practice stamping the numbers, the other turned out okay.I will post in my gallery. I would be happy to send the artwork as a pdf to anyone interested. It is set up for a 2" x 4" tag, but can be resized to anything.
I don't know when production went from Mt Vernon to Mamaroneck N.Y., anyone?
