Here are the plates on my 55 Wagon. They are " Old timer" plates for 1955 designed to be used on 20's and 30's cars back in 55. They were never registered and have the 55 tag on them. The DMV said " since they are YOM plates for 1955, you can use them on your 1955" Added bonus, they are stamped " A-210" and the wagon is .... a 210 wagon!

And then I scored a set of never registered 1965 plates for my 65. I work at the local Chevy dealer and am running our current plate frames.
