Tried to get 4X4 IS 16 but it was taken
Tried different variations but all taken by people who do not own a Syncro
16.
By chance I asked for the simple and boring SYNCRO. Got it. It's not so
boring now that it's the only Syncro in California with that plate. Someone
had the plate and apparently let it lapse.
For plate collectors, the boring ones are harder to find. I have
PORSCH plates for both Kansas & Texas. Both from the 60's.
I also have MARY & JOHN both from Kansas in the 60's.
I tried to acquire "69" but it was attached to a 1969 VW Bus. I quite
bidding
when the price went above $2500. I'm sure the bus was worth that much but I
did not want to take a chance on wanting to keep the Bus just for the plate.
There is only one PORSCHE plate in the California. The former plate owner
bought it even though he only had a Toyota truck. When his hopes of owning
a Porsche ended, he sold the plate along with the truck. I beleive it sold
for
$3500 or around that. The plate is now on a 356 Porsche.
