IS THIS ANOTHER MILLION DOLLAR 6 BANGER ?

In MI, you can run year of production plates for a lifetime for a 1-time fee. Easy choice for me....

Washington State we can't use any form of '69, 1969, sixT9 or sixTnine,  they say " sexual conations" But some times we find ways around it

That's what I'll be doing for my 69. You don't want to know what the 69 396 plate is on for now... It's my DD and tow vehicle.
And that's pretty pitiful in Washington state. I get what they're trying to do, but seriously, no 1969 on a 69 car?

I got this "302" plate for my '69 Z 15 years ago - couldn't believe it was still available without the Mustang guys grabbing it. 

69 396 was still available. That is until recently ;-) I was pretty surprised. Especially in Michigan.

...I wonder what they would say about my plate....? But is this really an a official personal plate from Illinois as the seller told me, I'm sceptical!

Looks fine to me. In Illinois, personalized plates are a mix of letters and numbers. It's the current plate design that's been used for a number of years now. On the IL Secretary of State site you can plug in what you want to find out if it's available.

Hakan, you'd be shot on sight then sent back to Sweden.....  Seriously, years ago I tried getting a " Vanity plate" that said "Slick 69" ( Hey I have a black shiny 69 camaro ) the state of Washington was not too impressed to say the least, they didn't say "NO" they said "HELL NO"!! you see everyone that wants a personalize plate (the State calls them Vanity Plates) must send them to Olympia for approval. One way to get around Olympia is to find a original old Washington plate that's in good shape, take it to the local licensing agent and you can have a plate with 69 on it and get a permanent registration.   Geez.... I hope no one from Olympia reads CRG's posts

Nice info, thanx! So that means that this is an official plate then?

Ha, ha, nice story, I'm glad I'm still in Sweden then!

Merry X-mas to y'all!

State DMV policies are interesting when it comes to vanity plates.

On my '69 RS, the plate is:  1969 RS      which the state had no problem with
On my 2011 SS, the plate is:  AWSUMSS    and I literally spent about 20 minutes convincing Nevada DVM that all it meant was "Awesome SS"
