There are vendors on eBay who sell reproduction CA Registration tags:

No surprising. Might as well be legal because you can can also buy old stickers/plates to register on different vehicles.

Mark,
Kinda neat. Great for any vintage car and plate. A friend has his originals on his '69 GT-500 and '64 Fuelie 'Vette. That said, I don't beleive they are legal for a current registration. Great for shows at least...

I think it might be possible as long as the sticker ID number is not currently in use, and providing the sticker is a quality/exact reproduction.

In Wa. you ARE required to have one on your Restoration Plate or also Called Year of Manufacture Plate.
WHen you register on the Plate you need to have a Tab (*Real or Repop as they accept both) matching the Model Year of the Vintage vehicle being registered.
License plate collectors in my area Love to get vintage plates with Stacks of real foil Tabs on them as they "peel" them back and sell them to swap meet goers seeking the correct year for thier car and plate. Often the Repop ones in Wa are off in color or graphics for each specific Year.

Ditto for CA from what I have observed.

Didnt know that about Washington. In Oregon, when you run a correct plate with special interest tags, they just give you one special interest tag for the rear plate that sticks to where the year tag would be. I still run my front plate and got a Oregon correct 68 decal. If you have a early plate (say 1930s) you dont have to run the sticker as there was no place for them on those plates. The whole thing is as clear as the Willamette in what you can and cant run.

The additional Plus in Wa. is
You are NOT required to run a matching front plate, You can omit or run a typical promotional plate of your choosing.
BLP 777
"Blip- Triple Seven" aka Lucky Dog.
This is the # the car was sold on & matches the First registration dated May 1968
(26, Dec 1967 Build & Ship Date)
"B" plate was for Pierce County (aka Tacoma)

FWIW
The (NOS) Dealer frames were found in the Attic of the Long Closed So. Tacoma Chev dealer and the Pat Austin Speed Shop "PRO-MAX" had dozens on a rack for $15 each.
