PA Antique Plate

Hello everyone,

I think I'm going to send our for the antique plate for my 84SE. Here in PA, we are allowed only 4 characters on the plate including hyphens. I was thinking of a few ideas but wanted some rotor-heads' opinions.

Here's what I have so far:

1. RX-7
2. 1984
3. 84SE
4. 13BT (for when I turbo)
5. Mike (my first name)

The thing I don't like about the first three is that it reveals too much about the car. Right now it's a mystery to the younger generation, as there are no emblems on the car. Seems like the crowd under 30 doesn't have a clue as to what kind of car it is when I'm at a stop light. I love that!


Let me know if you have any other ideas.

Thanks!

I'm amazed "RX-7" isn't already taken.

Good point! It probably is. The application form gives you three choices.

My first one, at this point, is going to be 84SE. Not sure what I am going to put for my second and third choices.

Thanks!

"****"

Quotes aren't working for me Tim, what am I doing wrong?

Maybe "****" is a banned word?

Hey, wait a minute, why did it work that time?

Let's try this again:

"****"

Anything with "RX7" is pretty much gone here in Calif. I did manage to just get this one for my SE
