    Ok I am going down tomorrow to get registation and get plates for
    the 71 grabber.
    Here is some of the possibilities in order of my preference.
    This year they converted to a black letter tag that is flat.
    My buggy has a personal tag that is blue raised letteing.

    Any other Ideas..........7 Characters Max

    GRABBER (most likely taken)
    71GRABR
    1971 (most likely taken)
    My 1971
    71 Ford (most likely taken)
    71 Boss (only if I got A boss Crate):cool:$$$$$$$
    SLEEPER:rolleyes:

    I was going to get ITSA69 when I was going to build my '69.5. Ohh, the double standards... :biglaugh:

    When I get my Fiat back together with the entirely new drivetrain, I am thinkingn about getting HAULUZ. :D Because there will probably be VERY few average cars on the street that will be able to touch it.

    You can only have 6 characters in Georgia.

    My VW Buggy is tagged "69BUGGY".....gets hard to come up with something with only 7 characters to work with.

    When I went to get mine it amazed me at how many where taken already. If it works like my state you have to pick 4 names and apply. Then they take the first one avalible if none are you have to reapply.
    Good Luck Robert!!!!

    I finally gave up after 5 years and just bought vintage plates with my year model on them. I found a couple guys at the swap meet with boxes of old plates. I could choose from several sets with various letter-number combinations, but instead chose to just buy the ones that were in the best shape. I think they were only $10 or so, and cost about $30 extra yearly to use. Same price, I think, for personalized plates.

    In Florida you can go to the state web apge for the DMV and plug in what you want and it tells you almost immediately if it is taken or available. I personally would like to use GRAB HER, if I HAD a Grabber that is.
