cybercop106 Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Remember in the episode "Stone's War" when Sonny was driving the stepside pickup truck, after the Daytona got destroyed and before he got the Testarossa. He complained to Castillo about showing up for "six figure drug deals looking like Little Abner." Well, I couldn't afford a Ferrari or even a replica, so I bought a Little Abner truck: http://miami-vice.ws/picture.php?albumid=11&pictureid=80(Next to it is our Honda CRV and our Dodge Caravan)http://miami-vice.ws/picture.php?albumid=11&pictureid=54http://miami-vice.ws/picture.php?albumid=11&pictureid=79This was my last patrol car: http://miami-vice.ws/picture.php?albumid=11&pictureid=53just your standard Crown Vic Interceptor...........

Pandina Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 My Hot Rod 1970 Plymouth Duster 340My Daily Driver 1989 Dodge Daytona ShelbyI like your cars Lou!!!1st has one of my favourite colours, I've just bought a shirt which is exactly the same shade! ;)It's also cool that in US you can customise the plate. I wish we could do it too. The first is Duster, but what's the second? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Looks like "TRUST NO ONE". (TRST NO1) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Ferrariman Posted May 18, 2009 Administrators Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 The 2nd plate on the Daytona is TRSTNO1 or "Trust No One" I'm a big "X-Files" fan too!That is also the original factory color on the Duster "Limelight Green" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandina Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Looks like "TRUST NO ONE". TRST NO1SURE!!!It's one of the X-Files taglines, if I'm not mistaken Lou is a fan.I LOVE the X-Files and now I want a plate like this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandina Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Can you have personalized plates in ITALY?NO! :evil:I WANT THE TRSTNO1 PLATE! I WANT IT' date=' I WANT IT, I WANT IT!!!We have the ugly boring standard European, like in the Admin pic[img']http://wachtelonline.com/golf/13.JPGblue background (Europe's official colour) with the stars in circle, here there's I (Italy) instead of D.Before we also had two letters indicating the city (MI for Milano) but this rule has been abolished for privacy reasons.Another thing: we cannot add anything to the plate, not even a tiny sticker.

Richie Rich Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 That is also the original factory color on the Duster "Limelight Green"Awesome color. Second best is the "Day-glo red", or "STP red" that you used to see on Richard Petty's stock car, and is still seen on the Team Penske IndyCars. Dupont mixes up a batch for Penske once each year, because the color is otherwise not used by any manufacturer. If I was driving down the street with this car color, you wouldn't miss me!

COOPER&BURNETT Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 But Pandina, doesn't ITALY get to have the front small plate, and is the only country in the EU that has that? Brits wish they had the small front plate.I have an Italian plate in front, and back on my Alfa Spider. I added them after the photos of my car were taken. I took the German plate off, and replaced it with Italian! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandina Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 Yes, the front plate is smaller but I don't know if we're the only ones in Europe. UK has the front plate white and the back one yellow, I think it's still like this.How could you replace your plate? For what I know it's not possible to have an Italian plate unless the car was registered here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 If you look at the photos I posted here, you'll notice that before I made a switchover from the german to the italian plate, on the back of the car I have the Euro plate, then on TOP of that plate, is the US plate making it absolutely leagal. I have since removed the old black frame around my US plate (it came from my black spider), and replaced it with a very thin chrome frame which now looks right. The photos are when I got the car, and didn't do many changes yet.I have a small front italian plate now in the front, but have never been pulled over or ticketed. It's only a $20 fine if I ever was, so police don't bother with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing can be added/removed, let alone putting a plate on top of another! :eek:You can't even add a fake plate anywhere near the real one, i.e. those sold in US as souvenirs.If the police stop you with the double plate you get a fine and they might even take you to jail ... no it's a joke they won't arrest you, besides you're not Italian.In case, FYI the jail is an historical building located in a beautiful central area of the city.View from topThe entranceDon't worry, I'll help you to escape either with the bed sheets or the cake with the file hidden in it!
