I finally got my butt over to the RMV to register the 1965 Coronet I picked up a few weeks ago. After a 2+ hour wait with the dregs of the universe, my number was finally called. I wanted to get a specialty US flag plate that is offered here in Massachusetts. Some of the proceeds from the plate goes to fire and police memorial and charity funds. The plate has 4 characters, usually 2 numbers and 2 letters. The one the lady plunked on the table had the number "28". She then looked at the paperwork again and said, "Oooooh, it's a '65! Let me go down the basement and find you a good plate." Yup, that happened. Don't know about where any of you live, but here the RMV is not known for hiring people who give a darn. After about 10 minutes, she came back with a plate with "65" on it. Pretty darn cool.
LOL, Oldschool, I know exactly what you are talking about. I'm from Waltham and my closest branch in in Watertown, it's horrible.
But I had that exact same thing happen to me years ago with my plate on my truck. The lady came back with just a random plate, stopped mid way, said hold on a moment, rifled through the plates ( they were at the back of the old building so I could see her), and came back with a big and said "I found one with your initials" I wonder if it was the same lady, they are not too common at the registry are they?
So are you going to Kimballs now?
Love to see your car.
