Apparently, license plates started out as porcelain not stamped metal, and the 1913 Model T Van fits squarely in that timeframe. I found an awesome article on porcelain plates that stated the press called early automobiles "devil wagons." I find it amusing (and not surprising) that tags came about due to miscreants wreaking havoc on the general public. Yes, I so would have been one of those miscreants.
I measured the plate holders for the model and printed up some old time plates. I edited the image to remove imperfections and the long holes that would have been part of the plate. Instead of making these stamped like my previous versions, these are finished in a smooth gloss surface using Triple Thick. They are glued on with paint dabs simulating screws.
Crank it up and hit the road! We're street legal!
