In case your still reading this my 1964 Dodge 880 was a CHP patrol car from 1964 to March 1966. It has black plates on it from when the first civilian buyer of the car bought it in 1966. I bought it from him in 1999 and it had not been registered in 10 years at that time.

These plates were issued in California starting in 1963, and the last ofthem was issued in early 1969 - then the color changed to blue with yellowcharacters.Since some in the IML may not have been around the last time this came up,I've taken the liberty of posting your question to the list too, I hope that's OK with you.
