number plates

Post by Dean »

Hello

i have just had my original number recovered for my car, so i can order up some number plates.

the car is a 62 morris,

i know they are pressed, raised letters on a black background ,

should they be silver or white letters?

what height should the letters be?

where is the best place to buy them from?

hope someone can point me in the right direction

thanks Dean

Number plates for a pre-1963 car should have letters that are three and a half inches high. The most common plates at that time were pressed aluminium. I can recommend the plates supplied by Vintage Supplies Ltd ( http://www.completeautomobilist.com ). I hope this helps.
