Cliff,
My old plate was a 1946 Texas truck plate. What made it special was it was the original plate with the truck. I had just had it restored, and the truck was in a magazine called Pickups and Panel Trucks back around 1995 and I have the magazine! Oh well.
The plate number was NF 4420 and it is registered with the DMV. I have enclosed some pictures of the plate and my truck in another email direct to you!
I have found a plate and at present I have it won. I know of a guy in San Antonio that has three plates. One is for a car, one is a truck plate and he even has a Farm Truck plate. His price is $275. A bit more than I’m going to pay! I’ll see if I get the plate online first and maybe I can do some kind of swap with him. For $275 I’ll keep the $5 replacement plate I just bought.
I really wish someone could make reproduction plates of my original. The plate I had with the article made it worth so much more! That’s life.
If you see something at a reasonable price give me a call!
I’ll be going to the NHRA Nationals in Houston Friday, a car show in Rosenberg Saturday and to Fayetteville Sunday to check the cattle.
Give me a call. I have sent you my phone numbers in the other email!
Thanks!
