Yup, it's a Texas plate (state is across the top, but not all states are like that). |
it's a 1968 Texas plate for what it's worth. HemisFair was the worlds fair in San Antonio in 1968 - everyone wanted 1968 plates that said hemisfair as a souvenir? - and so 1968 plates are the easiest and cheapest TX plates to put on your classic car. You can still use them on a 68 |

These are from a movie "A Dandy in Aspic" - 1968. The view is from a Type 1. Scene is in Berlin.
There were other Type 3s seen in the background, but these were the best. I think the Notch is an early and the Slantback is a 65-66?

It's hard to tell the year of the Notch, but the Fastback is a 66 due to the wide side trim, and long beak trim and no 65's were built (production started in MY 66). _________________ Bob 65 Notch S with Sunroof
