What are the chances ? BTL 057 on a 1957 Beetle? Been on there since 2002, way before vanity plates, probably have been on there longer...

As I read this Thread, I crack a smile at the people that cover their Lic plate with a rag or the all too clever thumb over the plate or the high tech way and blur the image on line.
Don't all you guys know that someone is going to run your plate and find your house and is gong to come and mow your lawn.
