    I have seem them at some swap meets. Does anyone know where you can get them? NOS or repo's. I would like to have one for my 71' PA or NJ

    Check in Hemming's Motor News, under Services.
    I am SURE someone in there goes to Hershey & Carlisle, or can send you what You need. Check for people dealing with License Plates.

    Thanks. I think I did seem them at Carlise. I usually go and forget to look for them and buy other stuff

    I would watch out for the MAN on that one. I would bet the boys(and girls) in blue would not take kindly to seeing those on a car if you drive on street.

    I don't think THE MAN cares all that much about expired stickers, unless you don't have a CURRENT one. Too, some states allow use of year correct license plates that have been repainted....My Stage 1 still has its expired 1970 CHP inspection sticker on the windshield, and the two times I was stopped by the po'-lice, they only wanted to ask if it was a REAL Stage 1, and see the motor. They thought the sticker was cool....The Federales won't care about state stickers, unless they look uncannily like 20.00 bills. Dan

    Exactly. Have a few friends that have muscle cars with these old stickers with a CURRENT one and eveything thing else is up to par. I witnessed the same, the Police thought they were cool. (just take it easy on the throttle). I have had several Police just check out my car, admire and wish me luck!

    Everything depends on requirements of the State.
    Some have Year of Manufacture Plate laws that allow the old plates & Inspection Stickers, under "Antique Laws".
    Others allow YoM Plates, IF You have your "Regular Plates with You" (Ohio I believe)
    I have seen YoM Plates painted to match cars, but that really never made sense to me, other than there have been some UGLY Plates in some States.

    I bought some reproduction stickers from http://stores.ebay.com/inspection-stickers

    I don't know if they have the Pa. sticker you are looking for. Send the sell an email to see if he has your sticker.

    Are you sure it's not Localistas, haha! No I meant that the locals won't care about expired stickers and the Feds won't care about state stickers, so no problemo! As you can see I am bilingual...been teching myself Spanish for years by watching TV.:laugh: Dan
