SoCal Vintage E3 Pics

[GolfBavaria]

I apologize for only taking 11 pics. I usually take more but so much to take in I didn't get around to it. I will make it a point next year. Hopefully it will be a little cooler. I was up very late doing last minute stuff to be able to get to meet so was too tired. Here is the link, click middle tab "Pictures and Videos":

Nice. Does anybody know what kind of spoiler/splitter is on the front of the blue car in pic 11?

Only one with a front plate?

Only one with a front plate?

Two, John Barlow's on the bottom of pic 11 and the one with two guys standing around it in same pic. (3) cars in from bottom left.

I figure in case my rear plate ever gets stolen for some weird reason, I will at least have the other one. Minor fix it ticket. And on these older cars I don't think it's a top priority for the cops unless one lives in Irvine or something. LOL..... Lowest crime rate in state or something like that, heard that somewhere a while back until they had their one murder last year I think.

The DMV will not create new blue/yellow plates if they go missing correct? Maybe I am wrong? I think you would have to get another blue/yellow plate off eBay or something and have a matching set but would have to be different of course. Mine have been on since new so would not want that to happen. I guess maybe you could get the same number in the new plate and just paint it blue and yellow, but not sure how that would work either because they would be reported stolen. Catch 22. Has anyone had this happen to them? Somebody stole your vintage blue/yellow plates, both of them....what happened?

don't like the look of the front license plate?

Just hide the plate when you are showing the car!!
