Joe,

I am not sure what new plate you are referring to, but I bought the
"PERSONALIZED QQ PLATES" I was lucky to get "38A1" for my 1952 M38A1.
I do not remember how much extra it cost. Possibly $50. It is worth it
since if we can afford toys, we can afford frills to go with them.

One change the NJ Military Vehicles are allowed is only hanging the Rear
Plate. You must carry the front plate inside the vehicle.
