Utah Historical Standard Issue License Plates

I don't just want any licence plate on my "Groovy lil Ghia" and I already have custom plates with my nick name on my other car.  So I was thinking it would be fun to put Historical Standard Issue License Plates from 1971 on Betty.  Utah DMV allows Vehicles of a model year 1973 or older may display original-issue license plates issued during the same year the vehicle was manufactured.  In order to display the plates you must find a set and take them to the DMV when registering your vehicle.

Today I found online and purchased a 1971 original-issue license plate.  Not sure if the DMV will allow me to register with just one plate or not...  But it isn't looking good!  Passed up a set for 127.00 on Ebay!
