Here in NH I will register it as a "Street Rod" which allows me to run without fenders. Only issue is it's only up to 4 digits. I've checked what's available online and so far I can get:
FFR
GARY
ARMY
OHOH
2HOT
MY35
BOOM (the reason is my truck is going to be called the COYOTE, and in the back, there will be a old wooden crate with fake sticks of dynamite in it)
also "Beep Beep my *** will be on the back window.

Hard for the police to read, especially if you have a Dyslexic Po-Po behind.
It would work well too if you just blew past an enraged Karen.

Coyote? Then you have to have "ACME" for your plate.

Truck is FUBAR, plate is KLLROY, for those who know, they know. We'll just say, Kilroy "IS" here.

That is awesome. Hope you roll with that. Nice conversation starter at the local Coffee and Car events.

Here is how the box came out. I am afraid that I went too far and the dynamite sticks looks too clownish. Plus, I made the crate to look old but I am thinking it's doesn't match the theme of the retro mod. I love the sign, so I may go with a more modern aluminum box with a flip up cover so as to be able to put things in seeing the interior is so small. Opinions are welcomed.

Google "Dynamite Box" and then check the Image option. Lots of ideas there. You could also add the ignition device.
I agree with you on the clownish look..... looks like a birthday cake with candles?

I think the box should simply be labelled TNT like the cartoons.
From memory, Acme supplied all the gadgets. I don't recall Acme dynamite. I second the suggestion for Acme licence plate.
Cheers,

Seeing I have had for over 30 years XCELR8, I see XLR8 is available. So it's either MY35 or XLR8

I agree w/ "TNT" over "explosives". I envision the sticks of dynamite tied together in a bundle, leaning over slightly in the corner of the box. Consider putting gaps between the wood of the box (think a palate), and paint the fuses black/gray.

Because my 35 is a military theme, I have an old military footlocker that I am restoring. It's in very good shape, but need to be sanded and repainted. This will bolt to my bed and be used for luggage space.

THat is a good one BUT the Best one to mess with a cameras is 88B8B and if you can run a plate trim and "accidentally" run the plate upside down they might not ever figure it out.
On the OP's loony tunes theme I think he Forgot ACME

Very Funny, but, as a Federal Law Enforcement Officer, I have to say both covering the plate with trim that restricts the clear reading of the plate and mounting the plate upside down would both get you noticed and pulled over. We all love to see roadsters and will take any reason to make a stop , if nothing else so we can take a closer look, but this would just give an officer Probable Cause. Just my 2 cents.

I think ya'll underestimate modern technology. I live near the outer banks NC and its common to get a regular plate that begins with OBX as long as you get it at the OBX plate agency. Well a lot of people figured this out on the mainland and they quickly ran out of plates... so now they use 0BX instead, My plate included. On the plate itself its extremely difficult to tell difference, so much so I didn't realize I had a "zero" until I tried to type it in to a website and it kept coming back not found. That said, I drive through a toll booth multiple times a day that has pay-by-plate and they never, ever, have an issue finding me.

When I drove from home to Factory five when I picked up my 33Hot rod kit I took my ranger pickup and 5X10 trailer. All plates were registered proper and legal on both he truck and trailer. (the truck has a receiver hitch, not a Ball on the bumper) I was fully expecting a (2) bills as i don't have a ez-pass. and I thought for sure it would pickup the trailer plate,.... but nothing.

I registered my new 20ft enclosed trailer today. The plate COYOTE was taken so I settled for "MY35PU"
