CHP E-plate ranges
Do we know what they are for each year?
Sam: I've seen you post some of them in various threads. Have you done them all, or do you have that info? Any one else? If everyone else knows what they are I don't and I'd like to get them all in one place. Thanks. EDIT: Plate Ranges Found So Far: 1982 = E870201 - E870600 1984 = E862632 - E862837 1985 = E408302 - E408445 1986 = E413765 - E413852 1987 = E422886 - E423060 1988 = E432914 - E433085 1989 = E433142 - E433150 and E435101 - E435300 1990 = E389203 - E389583 (plus E382378) 1991 = unknown 1992 = E895204 - E895250 and E389028 - E389189 1993 = E881502 - E881648 and E895252 - E895426 Last edited by 28HopUp; 08-25-2014 at 12:17 PM.

My 1992 plate is 895201 ( Antelope Valley )
Drove a 91 or 92 in Stockton plate # 389522 and also a 90 I believe ( has black wheels ) plate # 435235 I have photos of them here. The 2 from Stockton came out of the Sacto Motor Services Bldg. My car or the SoCal cars came out of the SoCal ( Torrence ) Motor Services Bldg. May be why the different plate variations. They got a pile of plates form DMV from 2 different locations during the same time. The only way to figure this out I think, is to work cars from SoCal areas, and work cars from NorCal areas. I think the plate pattern will fall in place that way. They would do a run of Muatangs, pull plates from the pile. Then do a run of Sedans, pull plates form the same pile, so by the time they did another run of Mustangs, who knows what the plate numbers were by then. I seriously doubt anyone will know for sure also. I have talked to people working in Motor trans, and they tell me the same thing. " we just pulled the next plate from the pile and stuck it on, that's the unit number it got " That's the answer. Hope that helps you some.

So far I've only found 82 and 87 out of my dads paperwork. I'm going to go back through what I've found. I've even found test paperwork from when the CHP tested the 84 SVO
I have seen on some paper work that is the same as the ones with E-plate ranges without E plates. |

I think I may have commented on this before, but I noticed that the E-plates skipped around on the CA smog website. I failed to write it down, but as I went through a known range of E88xxxx or E89xxxx Mustang plates I found at least one GMC Sierra 1500 pickup included in the batch of plates.
Sam, is any of your Dad's paperwork something that can be added to the VIN project? If so, please scan it and send me an email. If you want, you can add a copyright notation to each image.

Here's what I have seen so far from in-service pictures and VIN Project info:
1984 = lowest found is E862632 and highest is E862837 (a span of 206 plates) 1985 = lowest found is E408302 and highest is E408445 (a span of 144 plates) 1986 = lowest found is E413765 and highest is E413852 (a span of 88 plates) 1988 = lowest found is E432914 and highest is E433046 (a span of 133 plates) Maybe we can edit post #1 with up-to-date information as plate ranges are posted?

So there seems to be more plates than there are reported CHP's for 90? Interesting how mine "E389583" seems to be highest plate/unit # but was in the middle of the Con VIN run..

Plate assignment is different now and not in the hands of the Motor Transport techs. The vehicle certificates of origin from the factory are sent to DMV who assign plates to each one. CHP admin personnel then receive and put the plates on the proper cars before they ever enter the building for upfitting. That's how it was explained to us in April, right John? |

I'll second that.
My car is a 92, and the plate is 895201, so who knows what they started with on the 92's. T.M.I. for me to figure out. It's cool info though for those wanting to spend the time trying to figure it out. Keep us posted ! Thanks
