I had thought these plates were lost, when we were moving they popped out from behind a cabinet in my garage. Needless to say I now have them displayed properly in my new garage!
The 1776n was my first plate, I think the 'n' was made with athletic tape. The 145n plate is my favorite, someday I will build a bike around that plate. It was a custom done by Steve "Pickle" Delingher.
