Ryan,

You can probably create the desired appearance using decoupage techniques. If you are not familiar check with local craft shops for someone that could assist you. I am sure that you can do it!!!! Hope to get eyes on 5S501 some day soon!

Dennis

NICE!!!!!!

The picture notes the car as 67402F8A00998

Thanks for the imformation Bob, much appreciated.

If it helps, the VIN you are looking for are - 67400F5A00289, 67402F4A00544 and 67410F4A01947.

Szabo, I have recorded as many "original issue" license plate numbers that I have been able to find. Howard got me started we he share infromation from The Hertz cars that I was researching. From that it has expanded to all years that I can find. By the way the 1966 Black and Gold Hertz pictured in Mustang Monthly was assigned the CA Plate SVR 416. My car received SVR 419 - (corrected Plate Number). Both are recorded in the Registry. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Corretion - "Mustang Monthly" should be "Mustang Does It" book by Ray Miller!

I believe that the 1966 GT350 might well be 6S420, which is recorded as CA License plate RWD 816. That would be my best guess. Robert Vickery  Leased the car12/2/65 and return to Hi-Performance Motors one month later.

Thought I would run spell check. Hope no one minds!

So very sorry to hear of Randy passing. I too appreciated all the times that we PM on Hertz questions and information sharing. Prayers to all!!!

3975 is too high for the number of 1967 produced!

Thank yo for posting pictures. Much appreciated.

Jeff,

1966 Hertz 6S1984 was shipped to San Francisco along with 26 other Hertz cars on May 10,1966. Most cars in that group received licence plates with the dame SEU letters and numbers in the same range. Of the total shipment of 26 cars I am currently missing 5 license plate numbers in that group; and we may never be able to identify them without additional owners coming forward. Fortunately the California cars that were returned were documented and recorded. Some of those that were not documented have been confirmed by owners and are consistent with numbers of those previously recorded and filling the gaps in sequence.

Szabo,

Not sure where I found it, but here is teh picture from my files. It's hard to distinguish the Hertz cars just by a picture. After all they were supposed to look alike. I was very lucky to have observed to plate and make the link. Only the owner or someone who personally knows the car in this picture could confrim the VIN as authentic to the attached plate.

I had forgotten all about this thread and recently found it again. I thought that I might have already identified to car and checking my 1966  GT350 Hertz files I came across a new recent picture of a car with this same plate number and identified the car as 6S1984. It looked to be an original CA plate, so I have listed it as such in my records. Does anyone know who owns 6S1984 to confirm?
