In NY, when you punch in your selection, they tell you if it’s available.

Actually I was thinking of some abbreviated version of Tangerine for the Cobra. In the end though I have always been too cheap for vanity plates and that is probably how it will stay.

I bought a set for the Red Baron back in 2001. Here in Jersey at the time you had to pick 3 or 4 in order of interest. I got the second one. Got the idea from a bike in a M/C show in Maine.Thought at the time if I ever got the right car, I'd copy it. The '88 red 300CE was it.

Friend of mine has SEE YA on his Harley.

yes, various types such as Purdue or Ball State. You pay an extra $45 or so and the beneficiary gets like $5.
