YOM License plate frame
Posted by gone1951 On 2009/10/24 0:13:01
I didn't like the look of the metal tags California DMV supplied for the month and year stickers when you regestered YOM plates. Had a machinists friend of mine make a frame that looked like a dealer frame with recesses at the top for the stickers. The one I have is a one of a kind. I'm trying to get him to produce these for sale. They are NC milled out of a piece of aluminum. The radius's are copied from a dealer frame I have. The plate is recessed into the back of the frame as it would be in a dealer frame.
My question is would there be a market for these and if so how much would you think they would bring? I have discussed this with several people at car shows and have felt that somewhere between $125.00 and $150.00 isn't out of line.
These could be made to fit the smaller tags as well. California went to the smaller tags in 1956. Mine has PACKARD milled into it at the top center. Any car name, or anything else for that fact, could be milled into the frame.
I have attached a picture of the frame.
