I'd have to be honest and get 34x32 as mine.

A no go here in MA - max is 6 characters (letters or numbers). I imagine most states have a similar such limit so none of your suggestions would work.

I don’t run vanity plates, but I do run specialty plates on all of our cars. Our standard issue plates are quite ugly and a group of car enthusiasts got a specialty black plate approved. The added cost goes towards our road and bridge fund.

It took me a while to fiind one of these on Ebay (the top one - it isn't my picture) but one finally turned up. My GTV was originally a CA car and had a pair of the Santa Monica frames (based on pre-restoration pics I've seen) but at some point they were taken off and not replaced. I figured it would be cool to track one down, especially since Otto was quite well known in the car world "back in the day."
