2 hours and 80 minutes

Thanks Will, I was hoping someone would get it. It's not the most obvious plate, and that's why I like it.

That's awesome... not period correct... CORRECT . (Period!)

Yeah, I love the fact that Jim's car has always - since brand new - been registered with that same plate. Incredibly cool.

I had really hoped - since my best research indicated that my car was always from new an Oregon car - the the original owner might have still had the original plates stashed in the garage somewhere. Unfortunately, that was not the case. He changed to vanity plates when they first became available in the late '70s, and the original plates were either surrendered to the DMV, or discarded. So the best I could do was to find a pair of appropriate vintage plates. Close, but not quite as cool as the originals would have been.

Thanks Will. I never would have figured that one out on my own. How about 1440Z? That is also 2:40 (pm) using a 24hr clock.

I really like the 20TIL3Z plates as well. Other variations such as 20TOO3Z may still be available.

The variations I ran through before deciding on 20TIL3Z:

20TILL3

20TIL3

TWOFRTY

TOFRTYZ

among others...
