No front plate required in Kansas so don't need to find a pair. Did not want to run an antique tag, the YOM plate just adds a bit to the overall look. $17 registration per year per vehicle, no restrictions, no added needed inspection. Need not be county correct but mine are, again, just adds more to the overall look. Clerk at the DMV just checks the plate condition and that the plate number is not being used elsewhere in another county since YOM plate need not be county specific.

Man 57 plates those are hard to find! I have been looking for 55 texas plates for a 55 im trying to get back on the road. Only been searching a few weeks but when i find them they want some money for them

Found the plate I am running at a swap meet several years ago and being in nice shape picked it up with the YOM thought in mind at some point. The plate in the pic below was an auction purchase. Gave a $5 bill for it with only two others bidding which started at $1. Even if I never run it I just couldn't pass it up for the numbers plus the county is even correct for my use. Just don't have a BBC in my '57. Running a SBC 283 with original '57 2x4s intake and a pair of Carter WCFB carbs. Still a nice ......Score!.....

A 1957 Corvette with a 427 would be a stunner. I don't even know if they could fit a BBC into that car, but it would be maximun cool.

I have two sets that I bought for my Studebakers . One set is 1964 the other is 1962 . Both are mint examples but I refuse to give NY $25 extra every year for vanity plates . I can see a one time process fee but not in perpetuity. So I just used small rare earth magnets and put them on at shows . I do this too with my trucks I have a couple Wyoming truck plates
