Good job explaining the YOM process. The left side well years are: 1964, 1967, 1969 The right side well years are: 1965, 1966, 1968 For 1963 there are no stickers, only the '63 stamped into the plate in right side well. There were no month stickers in the 1960's or earlier, first year of the month sticker was 1976.
Thanks...I found this video AFTER I spent 2 hours thinking that I had everything....except the year sticker...those people at DMV are definetly DEI hires!
It is any plate 1963 and back. YOM (Year of Manufacture) Paper work. I have done it to both me old vehicles. As long as you place the sticker on it they tend not to make a fuss over it.
I have the blue CA license plates since 1986 on my 65 Mustang. I decided to re-paint them. Apparently I'm not supposed to have done this. Lol. So I'm hoping no one notices it (my color matching is horribly bad). Looks more like Cal Berkeley colors. I've been saving lots of annual registration $ going with my YOM plates over the new black plates with have annual fees.
Key note, you CAN do this for everything through the end of the 6 digit blue/yellow plates in 1980 (technically I think you can do 7 digit for 1980 YOM too). The DMV website doesn’t say that but if you look in the actual code and the application it says you can. I just applied last week for a 6 digit blue/yellow motorcycle plate for a 73. Hopefully it goes smoothly!
I surrendered my personalized plates (blue yellow) on my 67 Pontiac because they’re charging $43.00 bucks extra per year, why because they can. I’m surprised they haven’t tried to charge me somehow for my 66 which has its original black yellow.. they need a classic car program, Great video thanks for the info.
The question is... I want to keep the plates as original as possible and keep the YOM year sticker on and avoiding sticking on the current year registration sticker on. Is anybody else doing this?

Can it work with one plate? My vehicle only had one original license plate when i purchased it. Id really like to keep the same plate.
@@powerband5235 no. You have to have both.
