It was being driven by an older woman. Looks like she's taken good care of it.

Talk about a survivor. Can't quite make out the plate, but is that up north?

Original plates to the car — she bought it new in ~1993 and has owned it ever since. Very very cool.

Wow, I didn't even catch that!

For those who don't know, around 91 or so, Colorado switched from xxx-000 plates to xxx0000 plates. They switched back to 000-xxx around 2000.

The day they went back to the white plates, Jan 1, 2000, remains a low point in my life. I'll always remember the green plates and the fact that you could tell the county of the car from the plate number. Colorado got a bit more like California with the white plates and it hasn't turned back since.
