    7 more pairs of 32 cali
    and about 75 random unmatched plates ,but no more worlds fair plates......
    All told about 150 plates gathered and theres atleast 250 more good uncut /unrusted ones on the house...probably another 3 or 4 hundred partial and rusted ones there too...just too much work to get off the house.

    Going to try to snap some pics of the house.......

    In Cali you need a PAIR of serviceable plates to be able to use them. I found a pair of '51 Cali plates DMV cleared....$500....grab as many pairs as you possibly can.....could be worth a lot of $$$

    ofcourse the contractor got the cream of the crop, i was talking to him today and he found pairs of original plates in good condition, the one shawnlee manage to get will need to be refurbished for sure.

    There is a guy in my area that refurbs tags like that, then sells them for atleast $100 a pop. He'd probably cry if he seen all of those.
