DESCRIPTION:
An accurate as possible representation of California/Nevada state license plates for 1992.
This file includes 4 plateback files.
1 Nevada Plate
3 California Plates
1. NEV1 - NEVADA
This plate is the Big Horn/Sheep design. Features the Nevada State nickneme "THE SILVER STATE". Issued from 1983-2000.
The renewal sticker (top right) is self-made but entirely accurate in placement and design. This sticker has a september 1992 expiry date,
six digit id number, is the correct year color (dark green) and has the letters NEVADA printed up the left side.
2. CALI2 - CALIFORNIA
This plate is called the California embossed base. Simple design, red lettering "CALIFORNIA" printed at the top.
Probably the most common plate design encountered in 1992 California. Issued 1987-1994.
A real image was used for the 1992 expiry sticker in the top right. The month sticker (october) on the left is self made.
Unable to find the exact typeface I have substituted with EUROSTILE and modified the shape and spacing slightly so the appearance
is correct.
3. CALI3 - CALIFORNIA
The iconic Golden State Base Plate. Issued 1982-1987. Californias first reflectorized plate (mandatory in 1987), replacing the Blue Base.
A rarer plate as it was only exclusive for a matter of months, the blue base was issued until 1986 and the embossed base was introduced in 1987.
The sticker details are the same as cali2 except the expiry date is December 1992.
4. CALI BONUS - CALIFORNIA (current license)
I have included this Script Base plate as a bonus. It first appeared in December 1993 and is still issued today.
Not for use if you want GTA:SA realism.
