Lol that plate on the Fiesta would be hard to memorize quickly

Hey, someone else on the board with a Fiesta ST!

In California, a standard plate follows the vehicle with the sale. But, a personalized plate can go with the owner, and titled to another car if done within 90 days. I'm a huge HB Halicki fan, and have had the plate GONIN6O for many years. It's graced the back bumper of no less than six Mustangs.

Since I currently own a Fiesta, albeit the "cool version", I have to put GONIN6O on it to keep the plate. I have to explain regularly to people what it means, since it's not attached to a Mustang, which would naturally answer the question.

I drove around Ohio for a few years with this one on my Corvair. I was surprised that Ohio allowed it. I still have the car and plates, but I haven't put the car back on the road since moving to CA three years ago.

That's a great plate on your Corvair.

Around here, instead of vanity plates, folks install dark tinted plastic covers over their plates so they can't be read at a glance (or by the freeway toll cameras). They also install black-out tinting on all their windows, so nobody can peer in and see who's in the car. It's hard to imagine this stuff isn't illegal, but it's not here.

All this talk has made me wonder what happened to our esteemed member, Damfino who gave us the [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2481]Let’s See Your CB Out On The Road thread.

He hasn't been around for at least 3 years I think

I know. I always liked his username.

This was on my car, and nobody could figure out what it meant, which really confused me because of what the car was. Can you figure it out?

Randy, something to do with an Oldsmobile 442?

BTW, why should I spend extra money for personalized license plates when my CB1100 looks awesome without them?

More specifically, a 1970 Olds 442?
