In the past, numerous people have asked if the CA plates could be produced without the wells and the answer was "no". Has anyone recently bought, ordered or seen a replica set without them?

I was at his shop, not long ago, and noticed plates without wells.

CA or CA exempt plates? We heard he can't do that for the ones with the debossed "California" script at the top.

Marcos - the tooling he uses to press his CA plates creates both the raised "California" lettering and also the indented sticker wells at the same time. Unless he's changed his process (please ask him for us!), he can't get the raised lettering without creating the adjacent wells too.

Mike,

I spoke with the guy a few years ago, before posting the link back then on ORG. He wouldn't do the plates without month/year indentations before due to legal reasons, especially if you live in the state that you are trying to get plates for (his own efforts at wannabe screening). Maybe that has now changed.

Marcos,

I will be there in 2 weeks. Maybe we can go together and ask about a group discount for members? I'll watch him make a couple of sets of plates for me, too.

Do you know if the 86 frames are the same as the aero cars?
