Looking for the person that was remaking the license plate found in this pictures


I remember someone selling them on a site awhile back off of an original template but can't find their information.

Thanks!

 

Here is an Ebay vendor you could contact.

Thanks, I contacted him.

 

I have a good friend that is redoing this plate and it's more like the original than the others being reproduced today.

 

PM sent

 

Just ordered 2 of these plates! Can't wait for them to arrive!

 

Are these plates available yet, or is this something that is still being worked on

 

Yes, they are available. The question you now need to ask is, "Are there any left?"

I'll let Hairy provide the answer.

 

Brian, do you know if these plates are plastic or metal?

Hairy Olds, I sent you a PM to see if you know of any left over, so I could purchase one.

 

I'm not going to dig mine out of storage right now. My guess is that it's plastic, vacuum metalized with the "chrome" all over the front surface, with the colors then silk-screened on top of the chrome. But I could be wrong. It's definitely not stamped steel like a regular state plate.

 

Put me down for one, I just need a price, and a little history about its origin

 

VERY COOL!! -- most "****-A-Delic!" Did they make these for any other years?? ('71 or '72??) As others have asked...How much? Any left still or available again soon??

THANKS Hairy!

 

That would be cool to put on the 72 if they made them.

 

Yes this plate is available and it is made of plastic not like the original that was made of cardboard and didn't last too long in the weather.
The price on it is $25.00 plus $6.00 shipping.
I have never seen a plate like this used on any years after 1970. but if you can find a factory pic of one on a car I'm sure it can be made.
Please email Henry at hkrocket88s@tds.net for orders and more info thanks.

 

ESCAPE MACHINE TAG:
This tag was displayed on Olds’ 1970 show cars. Olds Escape Machine was one of Olds’ marketing themes for ’70. Everything for the 1970 model year was considered an escape machine. The secretary escape machine was the Cutlass S, the family escape machine was the Vista Cruiser, you get the idea. It came from the slogan "Oldsmobile: Escape from the ordinary", that was at the bottom of every Olds ad for 1970. You gotta love that groovy period art though.

 

Thought I would bring this post back alive. Does anyone know if there are any of these available somewhere?

 

Yes I do.

 

How do we purchase one? Tried the above address, it was no good.

 

 

Please contact me at: psigmund@wi.rr.com
I will send a pic of what is available.

 

I know this thread is a couple years old, but is anyone still making these plates? I would like to have one or two for my rallye 350.

 

Would you rather have a Rallye plate?

 

I’d prefer the escape machine one, I’ve always thought it was cool, plus it would break up the yellow haha.

 

I have an escape machine bumper sticker magnet and or decal for sale. $15 shipped each. Contact me for info on Facebook marketplace

Thank you for the offer but I’m really just wanting the tag for my car.

 

Does someone have a picture of the Escape Machine plate?

 

There are various versions.
