Thanks to both Ed Riggins and Ed Waller. Great information. It kind of looks like I may be able to use my new plates.

They are likely worth a lot if so. I don’t know the rules. What are the letters? If they are 1970, they might be too new. I found this:On July 1, 2009, California expanded their YOM program to add 1963-1969 passenger cars, and 1963-1972 pickup trucks. Vehicles manufactured before 1963 are still eligible. The YOM program allows owners of these classic cars to register old plates that match up with the model year of their vehicle. You'll need a year sticker or metal year tab, and the plates must be matching pairs with "cleared" (not in use) numbers to be eligible - meaning there is no record on file that the same sequence is in use on another set of plates (as California sometimes re-issued the same numbers/letters on different year plates). Search online for “California YOM” and you will find a lot of info out there.And read online here: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg352.htm Brad Waller From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Larry Williams Sent: Friday, June 10, 2011 4:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Chevelle-list] Calif License Plates A great friend gave me a new set of black and yellow license plates. They are still in he original package with Ronald Reagan's signature. Very cool and absolutely pristine. ! They are 1970 era, but the right color for my year car. Does anyone in California have any insight into registering these plates for my 65? Larry Everyday Is A Saturday
