What is a classic style number plate?

A classic style number plate is the epitome of British motoring style and can enhance the look and perhaps even the value of your classic car.

These number plates are characterized by their aluminum lettering cut out of a stylish black background. These handcrafted designs are hardwearing and practical as well as being an attractive addition to your vehicle.

This distinctive style is particularly popular with owners and collectors of classic British cars.

How are classic number plates made?

There are two different processes for making classic style number plates.

The first method involves a sandwiched material of the black background and an aluminum layer. Specialized tooling is used to cut away the top layer leaving the desired lettering.

The second method takes a little longer to produce. This involves a piece of solid aluminum which is then stamped, painted and finally baked to achieve the end result.
