just going through a few plate options, and checking whats available and mot here in S.A.
they're going on my '54 beetle which is gonna be kinda a Cal look mixed with a bit of Rat look.
I'm gonna get a custom plate, which means any combo of numbers and letters up to 7 characters
so far I like:
CLUNKER. (cos of the clunker doors, and it looks like an old clunker)
VOLKSY
VW54
OVAL54
54OVAL
BUG
V DUB
VDUB 54
CAL BUG
RAT BUG
CAL RAT
OLD BUG
any other suggestions?

rat bug would be excelent if it's still available, for me its a toss up between that and clunker

go CLUNKER
OLBUGA ???????

OLD SKL is still available too.
OLDSKL sounds good to me.
Beach Buggy
74 L Beetle
Mk4 Golf
RATSTR
BUGISH
RATTED
RATLO
SOORAT
Reimagined/Recycled/Upcycled Cool

how do you check if they're available? is there a website or do you call them up? wanna see if "BORSCH" is free. can you have umlauts on custom plates?
Doesn't it depend on what state you are in as to how to check? I think in QLD its soemthign like ppq.com.au
My vote is for CALRAT
'Ah, whatever................'
yeah, depends on what state you're in.
here's the link to the S.A. one.

I don't think they do Aussie plates with umlauts, but you gould just paint them on after.
There's a place on eBay you can get german plates made, and you can get umlauts done.
I got the plates for my V6 kombi done in German style.
Dan, maybe VINTGE or AIRIDE,
See you soon.
T54
C'mon kids gather round,
there's a new sensation hitting town,
It's moving straight, low to the ground,
it'll pick you up when your feeling down.
KDF RAT
no more said.
here it is.
haven't got the plates yet.
ooooooo love it! That looks like a pinch darker than my green 54! the Sprints suit it to a tea Mr Bigglesworth!
...how do you spell rat in german? CLUNKER OR CALRAT gets my vote.. or DAKDAK
...and Robert's ya father's brother...
find something flexible, ie. Volksy ? cause if someday you change your mind or plan, then the plate means nothing after. I mean the plates with Cal or Rat ... but they do look cool! or get another plate if u change your mind later on! :thumb

that's why I was thinking Clunker.
It'll always be an old clunker.
and it's got clunker doors.
plus the added sting of getting beaten off the lights by a car that openly admits it's a clunker.
Kinda like the super shit box ?:duh
