Dogma, If you take the plates into the DMV office they will examine them, photo copy them, then submit the paperwork. It will take the Salem office about 6 weeks to approve them. It cost me about $175, but I also was transferring the title. Send me an e-mail directy if you need a source for blue plates. Bryan

Hi Gary, I just had Oregon blue plates registered to my '73 and was told, at the Gresham DMV office, that very soon this practice was going to be eliminated. I don't think that the Special Interest is going away, but what they call "custom plates" will go away. She said we only have a few months left. So if you are thinking about getting it done, you'd better act now. As for restoration in Oregon, there is at least one business, based in Terrebone, that does this. In fact re-selling and restoring is all they do. The Blue plates still have NOS around. For whatever its worth, Bryan

Hi Loren, I will be at the show again tomorrow. Burgandy '73 240Z. Please stop and introduce yourself. I was right in front of the Z Therapy booth today. See ya tomorrow!!! Bryan

Hey Beandip, I have a '73 and I live in Gresham. How about a firsthand inspection? :laugh: You'll need to act quick, I travel alot. Bryan

I recently bought one from Danny's Datsuns. I'm sure he has many more. I bought some other items as well and when I was cleaning them up, I realized that a carb heat shield wasn't up to my standard. Danny rushed me out another no problem. He was really good to deal with AND he stands behind his parts. You may look into a tachometer from a "75 or so. I understand that the "72 tach will not work with the newer distributor. Many threads on the subject I'm sure. Danny's Datsuns: 541-430-1180, Sutherlin, Oregon
