Thanks Ken

I love doing the plates, lol. My ex was a professional ice skater and she wanted one but so many were taken already. I came up with the one she got, EYE SK8.

I like the SS396L78, NOVAL78 and RPO L78

But others:

FASTNOVA

NO PRIUS
1BADL78

RARE L78

I could probably go on and on, lol.

[MYSTERYCHEVELLE]

I’m usually one that thinks if you are doing a Personalized Plate.... while it is PERSONAL, it’s actually for the people behind and around you. So, don’t make it something that makes people say Huh? Like a Tattoo, you don’t want folks looking at it and saying “ I Don’t Get it”

Keep it Cool but Simple in my opinion.

That said., my brother races and his 68 SS NOVA L-78 was campaigned as Novacaine as shown here.
My Black 66 SS speaks for itself 😎

Unless things have changed, Ontario Vanity plate can NOT change owners or be sold.

So when you sold your 1970 Nova L78, say the new owner WANTED that plate! He could buy it off you for display purposes, but he can't have the car registered with the plate he bought off you.

I know my 1961 YEAR OF MANUFACTURE PLATE now stays registered to me forever? I sold that car in 2018 and still had like 3/4's of the year left on the "sticker". I inquired about the balance on that "sticker" with the ministry. They said I could transfer it, but it also meant LOSING the plates even though I own them. Also said that 1961 plate number stays with me now forever as the province doesn't reissue plate number or sayings.

[EZ Nova]

R u quik

I wouldn't put that on ANY of my cars? Of the 3 I have, the lowest performance Hp is 575Hp 427 that runs mid 10's. Combo of cops and insurance would look at that in a different light if that comes around. ALSO the fact that most modern performance cars will outrun most muscle cars from back-in-the-day.....

Hell my 78 yr old mothers car (Audi TT roadster) will wax 99.9% of the muscle cars with the 12.8's I got it to run. She even DROVE it from Ontario Canada to Mesa Arizona BOTH ways in 2017....

[BJCHEV396]

SURE!!! What do you need for them ?

Display only Zig.If you're still interested P.M.me your email and I'll send you pics.Too big to upload here.

[Unreal]

I wanted UNREAL (double entendre) for my Yenko Tribute, but last time I checked, it was already in use. I have an NOS 69 Tennessee Dealer tag, and I was going to register that number for my tag. Then run the 69 tag on the car, with the properly registered tag in the trunk, in case I got pulled over. But I never got around to it.

A personalized licence plate can be transferred only once to anyone before it is attached to a vehicle. You can purchase a gift certificate for a personalised licence plate at a ServiceOntario centre.

Ziggy, so a personal plate can only be transferred one time BEFORE it is registered to a car? So once it's registered to one car, it can not be transferred????

Is that right?

… How about "AOK L78"

As far as I can tell.Bud.I got that info right off SERVICE ONTARIO.

Trans + engine RPO code


M21 L78


I had fun with this one, gets right to the point.

[EZ Nova]

ok back to plates. I myself no longer go after specifics on a plate. That Nova would do nice with 70396375. But if you sell it that plate could be transferred. BUT say go get a 69 or a LS6, why would you want that plate any longer on those. It becomes a piece of wall art for later use. And we are NOT getting any younger.

So unless it was something special, like say your dads car like I'm looking at doing with a 1967 Vette. Once I get that it will never be sold as long as I'm alive. It will be "willed" to my son upon my passing. So if I get something like "67 Vet Rag or 67 427 4sp.

So If you can Babalo or something more generic and less model,yr or car specific would be what I would do. I have a version of my last name (changed from when there was only 6 letters allowed) 61 yr of manufacturer plate. The new car, 1967 Nova SS has OLDESKOL. 427 BBc with T400 and tubbed with 29.5 x 12.5 tires and leaf springs.

Good luck but that is what I do and recommend.

[Zedder]

Yep, can’t transfer after you put it on a car. I probably have 15 sets of personalized plates for cars and bikes. I’ve used a couple twice because I had the same model car/bike. I have 67 RS Z, 67 SS L78 and ZeeL1 that have never been on a car.

[L72Biscayne]

How about these two?

Amazing !!!

Are you going to tell us your secret ?

[ZiggyL78]

Well no personal plates for me this year.I do have my old Grand National plates,but I would have to change the motor ;)

[EZ Nova]

Or instead of personalized, get year-of-manufacture plates? There custom enough that people see there different from the ugly current Ontario plates, but generic enough that IF you sell, they CAN transfer to any other car of that year, like another 70. Usually runs a bit more upfront cost though.

IF you do want YOM plates, I do have a guy I bought my 1961 plates off that sells them with the guarantee they are usable by the ministry.

Good luck, John

[RPOL88]

"Big" Moe DeLage campaigned a 69 COPO Camaro with Deb"s Speed Engineering. His rear plate read DARATZAZ.

[Z15 SS 454]

In the 90s I had the plate RATIKL on one of my 70 Chevelles.

My friend had ERATIC on his 68 Chevelle

That's what I did,as the state of Illinois allows it.
I contacted an antique license plate collector advertising in Hemmings Motor News back in the 1990's and asked him if he had any Missouri,(where my Chevelle was made & sold too) 1970,(year of my car)...and quite possibly showing the month of October,(when my car was assembled).
Not only did he have one for me,(Missouri only required 1 plate back then as opposed to Illinois wanting 2 plates),he had one showing 396,as well as X2C.
It's a perfect match,as Missouri plates back then displayed the Year the plate expired,not issued.So a Missouri plate showing 1970,was really issued in 1969,which was when my Chevelle was assembled in the state of Missouri and in the month of October too. :)
