To Tom if you are reviewing this forum.

I was looking at Tom Potts killer Camaro and came accross this picture.

I also live in Texas and want to put a '69 License Plate on my car when it is finished. In Texas, if you have an original plate from the year of the vehicals manufacture date, you can register your, "Vintage", car with it.

My question is, Does anyone know if you can use after market plates that look vintage on a older car?

I love this plate, but given the wording, and the use of the two letters and three numbers (Truck License Plate Sequence), I am wondering if this plate is used for showing the car only.

If not, where can someone get one of those, they look great.

Tom, your car and it's story was fun reading. We probably don't live that far away from each other if you frequent the Dallas Market Hall for car shows on a regular basis. Are you a member of the North Texas Camaro Club?

Anyway, thanks in advance for any information.

Hey Ty,

I can answer for Tom. The plate is ahem, yes for show only!

I think Tom is going to have to tell you where he got it because I don't remember.

And finally, yes he is a member of the North Texas Camaro Club as am I. Are you?

Did you see the write up on our club in the latest Camaro Performers Mag? If not, it's on the NTCC website:

www.northtxcamaros.com

Also, I haven't seen it yet, but Tom's car is suppose to have a nice spread in the latest Chevy Rumble mag although the story does have some inaccuracies.

Kel:

Thanks for the information.

I not a member.......yet. I have a '69 Camaro started, but it won't be ready for about a year. It will be a complete rotissorie re-build, absolutely Pro-Touring, not original.

For underneath, I am really interested in seeing the new DSE front Clip, with either the triangulated four-bar they have or, maybe a complete Wayne Due Set up, or ???.

I've still got some time to figure this out, and the liturature is on it's way from Wayne Due.

In the mean time, I am stuck being an, "Armchair", rodder, and hopefully a good listener. This site obviously has people with many years of experiance.

In about a year when it is done, I think it will be real nice.

Anyway, Kel thanks again for the information and I look forward to meeting you in the future.

Best Regards,

Ty O'Neal

The little, "smilies", are kind of dorky, but I think they might be fun........?
