A friend of mine had his real plate number put on a period correct plate.

When he asked the DMV, they said it was illegal and that his vehicle could be impounded if caught by a police officer.

Not worth the risk to him any longer. He now uses it just for shows.

I, however, had a 65 Texas plate made that said COBRA in black letters on the white 1965 plate. Ran it for 2 1/2 years and was never stopped. Guess I was just lucky.
