I am looking for old license plates for a project that I want to do on my 87. Condition doesn't matter. Thx

I usually just hit of old junk stores.  Usually you can find alot of California and Washington plates in vast amounts. 
I have one from PA, Amish buggy plate.   :wink2: 


What's your plans?  I am planning on a shop wall full of plates. 

The problem now is, people cutting them up, and making signs out of the letters.  Like this:

You can get good deals on Ebay for a lot of old plates.

Ones that aren't on a vehicle anymore mostly.

I am going to make door panels for my 87 out of them. I would also like to line my shop walls eventually. I'll have to look at eBay and Craigslist.
