Does anyone know where I can buy this specific font 70 plate? I haven’t been able to find a source with the trailing “9”. Thanks!

"Specific" includes the background silver color too?
 
Classic Industries sells those, but the "Chrysler Corporation" in the lower right corner may no longer appear on the plates.
 
:lowdown: agreed. Better. “spitting image”?“dead ringer”?
:lol:
You are looking in the right place.
:drinks:


A "reasonable facsimile" (i.e., Year One version) is not the answer for you.
:D
 
Wrong year, but I saw this one on FABO...

Might be able to get a local signwriter to make something up.
 
Total respect for all input. Genuine appreciation for taking time to offer suggestions.
So far resellers with any model year silver background plate only offer the traditional “9” font. (all numbers are even horizontally level on bottom of each number). Year One did have a ‘69 by coincidence with the sought after ‘long tail’ 9. Classic Industries, eBay only had the typical even numbers for example. Oh, and a friend located an image of a white background plate with the 9 font I want.

Would a white plate black numbers look special on the EB7 with white top?!?!

So I’m going to obtain a nice looking traditional plate and continue the hunt. I see now that locating a real (or repop) “the real McCoy” is going to be more difficult. I’ll go back to a couple remanufacture plate companies and check. Thanks again.

Appreciate it! I may have to go that direction at the end of the day. But first, I’m kinda motivated now to hunt down a real one from back in the day, and wrestle it out of (ahhh, sweet talk) some dude’s collection.
