Re: 69 Custom 30 wrecker restoration

Well, it was a very long wait on that license plate! Are you ready for some drama? Here’s a typical day in my life; apply for the license plate at a local notary, 4 days later the post office sends the envelope that they sent to the DMV back to me for postage due! Can you believe it, they forgot to put a stamp on the envelope!

Is that bad enough? Nope. Another week goes by after I send it back out and I get the envelope back from the DMV this time. Turns out the notary didn’t include a form needed so they couldn’t process my application! So… I fill that out and put another stamp on and send it back.

Finally, about 4 days later, I get my plate. Success! I should be happy but sure enough, I get the plate on a day it’s raining and horrible outside. DOH!

So I’ve got the wrecker, the insurance, the plate and now I sit here waiting for some dry weather so I can finally drive this thing. Sometimes you just can’t win!

Road report to come, sometime soon I hope…
