    I picked this 40’s V Tag plate , I’ve only seen one photo with a Veterans tag on a Hot Rod, bought this for my 28 roadster .

    The V tab stands for Victory rather than Veteran. Issued in 1943. Screenshot (192).png

  4. That's good to know, because I don't know if I'm comfortable with someone sporting a veteran anything when they clearly are not.

    Just one but I bought it for the tag to be honest as my A-Bone is a Post ww2 Roadster.

    Its Victory I found out so am happy, although I was in the Royal Anglian regiment back in the 80's.
