I had the same problem with my 1971 plates - original white/black. The replacement plates for 1971 were white/red.

I had to talk to two tag offices before I found one with someone who really knew & understood the classic/antique YOM plates.

Good luck!

DaddyO, that's exactly what was going on. I went back with about 10 examples of all types of 72 plates and she finally caught the replacement plate note. Funny thing is, this time she accepted the plates even though they were not "Truck" plates. All is well. Also found out I don't have to run a front plate if it's registered as an antique. I hate front plates.
