[TR] TR4 Tire Size and Commission Plate Questions

[James Henningsen]

Listers - thanks for the info on the tire size for my TR4 and some good
sources to purchase.  Also, as an FYI, the source recommended to stamp an
exact replacement of my origi 62 TR4 commission plate stated he is no longer
doing this due to fed law concerns.  He did recommend using the 1/8" Harbor
Freight steel stamp set.

I'm just curious, is it against the law to have an exact copy of your original
commission plate made during a restoration?  I thought restorers were doing
this to make the restoration as perfect as possble. I also understand that the
process can be misused to create higher value cars (e.g., creating a hemi cuda
from a 318 cuda).
