His work is very good, but I have seen complaints about the time he takes. He has had mine about 6 months. He asked for payment in October.

i did a search and found lots of issues with his turnaround time.. no matter how good the work is what good is it if it takes years to get done. thats one guy to stay away from.. i like things handled in a reasonable amount of time unless notified in advance about it. to pay for it in full is nuts, Rod at tag dr didnt request payment till it was ready for shipment back..as mentioned this is my third go around and each time has been pleasant and quick. when i find a good guy on a service i will stick with him and tell others. thats the best form of advertisement.

There is an alternative to YOM plates is some states. I have a pair of 1927 Colorado plates that were painted to match the car. Since it was registered in 1999 with a bonded title, I'm unable to get YOM plates. However, I was able to get personalized plates matching the '27 numbers. Never any issues with the law. The '29 plates are un-restored originals and designated as truck plates.

Mitch,

Wow great plate for you... amazing work by the Dr.

Mitch,

In hindsight, I wish I had had the foresight. I went off of the recommendation of a respected member of our local club without checking on FB. Not much I can do now. When they called and wanted my cc number, I assumed that the plates would be shipped soon. When they didn't show up, I called. It was then that I read some comments on line. Caveat emptor!

"Lots of others states had those same holes.
They were used to set the plate on little pegs when the plate was struck with the serial number. Basically to keep it in place on the table when striking".

that is the same reason for that notch in US army dogtags it hold it in the embossing machine.

The notch in dog tags is so the tag can be jammed inbetween the teeth of a body.
