Currently the house acroos the street is being torn down ,One entire outside wall is covered in 1917 - 1942 plates ....alot of 1932 plates...
They are painted white from there current duty as siding on a house:LOL:
Should I go grab em or are they pretty much worthless...?:confused:
grab them quick .. most states allow you to run a tag of the cars vintage and you never have to buy another .. i`m looking for a 69 heart of dixie alabama tag .. mite make a mint on ebay
I got a quote for 499.00 to buy a vintage 48 california plate, grab em! I didn't buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D
Grab them and I'll pay a finder fee and shipping to my shop in PA.
If you don't get them you will be sorry later when you see a plate you "Could of gotten" go for some BIGG BUCKS like stovens said....Joe
3 pair of cali 32 plates soo far
1 pair worlds fair 39
1 pair nebraska 32 plates
about 50 unmatched 32 plates and about 10 different worlds fair 39 cali plates.....
going back now to save more before the bulldozer gets there.......:CRY:
7 more pairs of 32 cali
and about 75 random unmatched plates ,but no more worlds fair plates......:CRY:
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 $$$
More pics ....anyone see anything on the wall that calls out to you,better speak up,they will be gone tommorow mourning....still time to pry a few more off..........:LOL:
These pics are after I striped the ones I have and theres still tons of em....:whacked:
I just spied 2 more 32 matched pairs in the photos ,I am goin back again..lol
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.
I think I hit gold with the matched 39 cali worlds fair plates......:D
Any 48-52 california plates would be appreciated! Steve.:3dSMILE:
If they are in serviceable condition and DMV cleared.....I think you did....Quote:
