I've had this one in Texas for about 15 years.

Dean Edwards just called me and mentioned this thread.

I did indeed have 'E9 C6' on a Florida plate but relinquished it when I made an ill-judged move back to England in 2020. I returned to FL in January, '21 but didn't reinstate the plate; I took pot-luck and now I'm anonymous ('T31 QQA'). Smile

Here's the plate, picture is courtesy of Bill Cunningham who was in Naples where we had lunch (you can tell by my waistline. Smile )

As a PS: It occurred to me to see if it was available and Collier County said it was; only weeks later I was at Chattanooga and I saw a TN plate 'E9 C6' - it turned out to be John Hughey's! I'm wondering now if I should get it back.....?

Paddy's and Darvin's plates are great! I think Jim Cohen has something similar, but on a PA plate.

Paddy:

I'll have to see what they'd charge now. I'm on a fixed-income!!! I'm not Zum-rich like you!! Smile

I got stopped late one night and two State Troopers were asking if the plate had any '....military connotations'. It took a bit of explaining but they achieved their goal; to find out if I'd been drinking.

They were 15 years too late.
