Did I miss them, or does that one not have any turn indicators?

It looks like it has those silly Rossi headlights with the turn indicators integrated into them. I would wonder about everything else under that paint. |

I might have posted earlier that I was wrong, I just my notice from the CA DMV for the new plates I ordered and this was one the back of the form.
"This office is holding your environmental plates. In order to retain your priority, vehicle code section 5109 requires these plates to be assigned to a vehicle. If they are not assigned to a vehicle within 30 days from the date of fnal notice, we will cancel these plates and make them available to other applicants."
When I posted earlier it was because when I sold a car and retained the plates years ago and didn't put them a on a car for a few years I always got a bill from the DMV to keep them, it sounds like if the guy with 10 plates for sell can't keep them unless he assigns them to a car maybe?
The only caveat is the "30 Day final notice" and what true definition of that is?

I think you can't hold them forever... as stated.
Either the price will drop... or they'll become available through DMV.

And it looks like it's been in the PNW for quite a-while based on the Rai-Nieer-Beeeer decal. (You Tumwater guys know what I'm sayin')

I've heard it's not for sale, meaning it can't be bought. I know several people who have offered the guy the various asking prices over the years only to have the deal fall through or the seller never respond. |

Definitely installed upside down and really does look like a sportmobile top.

That seller has to know those are not for a bus, he is a bus expert. I see that fairly often where an ad shows a odd item but lists it as a og part or a very knowledgeable seller list something as if they don't know what it is, rubbish!

Looks like a stay for a lift-up cupboard door flap, or toy chest or storage seat lid.
