Vanity Plates "XIV" 7

[SantaMufasa]

Yet another new thread for our Vanity-Plates obsession. (Previous thread exceeds 100.)

I didn't know what this plate meant:

S3I8008

...until my perverted buddy said I needed to read it upside down.

I was thinking Astro from the Jetson's.

SamBones:

Was RUH ROHS, perchance, on a Chevrolet Astro?

[djj55]

I think the Jetsons is a better guess. I had forgotten about them.

[SamBones]

Yeah, I was thinking The Jetsons. "Ruh Roh" was one of Astro's signature lines.

I don't recall if it was a Chevy Astro, but I'll go with that just because it makes the plate even funnier.

 

[flapeyre]

And The Jetsons came out before Scooby Doo. I think Scooby was modeled after Astro. Both semi-anthropomorphic* Great Danes.

...and both were voiced by Don Messick. So there is a bit of DNA shared between the two.

Didn't know that, but it makes sense now.

And I'll bet I was around when you were "started". <grin>

Okay...

Remember the Henry J? It was fin-ished.

I love it when old people argue.

My sister had a Buick four holer. I was one year older than it. You could hold a party in the back seat and not disturbe the four people in the front! That was the car that was ahead of it's time as it started with a button, or at least had buttons to shift. That has been a few years ago.

...it started with a button, or at least had buttons to shift.

Is that the one that also had a button to empty the ash tray? There was a car in the 50's that had a button that would dump the contents of the ash tray out the bottom of the car. People's heads would explode if a car did that today, but it's an interesting feature for that time. I just don't recall which car had that feature.
