I would like to have a custom plate on my truck. But in Kansas you can't have a custom plate if you have an Antique tag. But....for $17.00 a year and no mileage restrictions, i think i can live with it! Joseph

How about FSTNFUN.

It was the title of George Lucas' first film.......it was also the plate number in American Graffiti.........I think there was another reference somewhere else in another Lucas film but I can't remember what it is.

ArkGL01 · 06-14-2012, 02:02 PM

I got CUDRULN for my plate. I always like them to say something cause people really get a kick out of them.

**chiefcfd** · 06-14-2012, 04:09 PM

I wanted :

TOPLESS
AIRNOUT

for my 72 but in Ky we can have only 6 letters so I will try for:

OPEN72
NO-TOP

It was the license plate number on one of the cars from American Graffiti. It was one of George Lucas' first sci-fi films.

GASoline71 · 06-14-2012, 06:08 PM

Yup... It was either on Falfa's '55. Or on Milner's Coupe.

I happen to have Bob Falfa in my avatar.

Love that movie!

My truck was dubbed "Creeping Death" by one of my buddies. So one day I want plates that say CRPNDTH.

This may have changed, I ordered a custom ks antique tag last week. 17 dollars gets you the normal tag but another 45? I think will get you the custom if you want. I went with 72chev

YESSSS!!!! Nicely done. Little known fact, apparently, that he always tried to stuff those letters/numbers in his movies somehow.... I'm impressed!

Ha!

I was expecting a response from your BECAUSE of your avatar! Yep, it was the plate on Milner's Coupe.

You guys that can get 7 digit vanity plates are lucky. We can only go 6 up here and anything I ever wanted to put on my truck always neede 7 digits to make sense. Our regular plates have 3 numbers a space with a wheatsheaf in the center then 3 letters. I was patient ( as us old Dudes usually are ) and waited until the letter series with my initials came out and seeing I have the numbers 777 on everything I have my I called the DMV and found out which issuer had the 777-GDB (my initials) plate and it was only 10 miles from home so thats what I have on my truck.

I applied to get the vanity plate "My Hoe" for my Cop Tahoe but the puritans at the DMV wouldn't let it pass even though it was going on my Tahoe. Their reasoning was it would be offensive if I transferred the plate to a vehicle other than the Tahoe. I got Z56 for the Tahoe.

I've always liked the one I had on my first car, back in 1974:
