license plate

[Cees de Bunje]

hi guys, does anyone know where this plate comes from and how many leters it must have ? Cees.

[Cees de Bunje]

That is clear to me. Does it work like That in Oklahoma ?

It varies state by state but at some point, most states went to keeping the same license plate # and getting a small stick that is placed on the plate when the plate was renewed. In NC we have two stickers one with month and one with date.  For example on my personalized ELVIS plate I run on my Escalade I have had it for quite a few years now and change out the year sticker in upper right once a year as it is renewed.

Also, if you let your license plate registration lapses most state will issue a new license plate # with new stickers.

Can anyone tell me if the licenseplate changed every year? Or does it stay the same. I have an inspection ticket with My vin # but with a different license plate # as the one on the picture. I am confused.

@ robert..........it is indeed Oklahoma. I found today a window inspection sticker that would expire in 1986. so it must be issued in 1985.

Cees,there may be a method to get info from Okla. DMV,but my experience with an issue like this has been you have be law enforcement to get that info.Oklahoma has some really messed up laws and policies,IMO.

@ robert...........do you think there is a change to find out where its from or who the owner was of that license plate. i havent a clue where to start.

[Robert Alan Shannon]

I was mistaken.Most counties used 2 letters but later on some of the more populous counties could be 2 or 3 letters.Digits could be 1 to 4 numbers.I've never seen 5 though.GV would be Garvin county My part of the world.

thanks Robert, i looked that up on the internet but in the 80's and 90's only 3 letters and 3 digits not 4. If it is from Oklahoma then it must be from the county Galvin. That is what i could find. do you agree ?

[Robert Alan Shannon]

 Plate looks to be Oklahoma 80's or 90's.Hard to be sure but sizing and color,dark green,would be correct.Would be 3 letters, for county designation.Also top of plate looks like Oklahoma is OK.That went out about 2000 I think.HTH Robert S.
