My 1992 plate is 895201 ( Antelope Valley )
Drove a 91 or 92 in Stockton plate # 389522 and also a 90 I believe ( has black wheels ) plate # 435235

I have photos of them here.

The 2 from Stockton came out of the Sacto Motor Services Bldg.
My car or the SoCal cars came out of the SoCal ( Torrence ) Motor Services Bldg. May be why the different plate variations.

They got a pile of plates form DMV from 2 different locations during the same time. The only way to figure this out I think, is to work cars from SoCal areas, and work cars from NorCal areas.

I think the plate pattern will fall in place that way.
They would do a run of Muatangs, pull plates from the pile.
Then do a run of Sedans, pull plates form the same pile, so by the time they did another run of Mustangs, who knows what the plate numbers were by then.

I seriously doubt anyone will know for sure also. I have talked to people working in Motor trans, and they tell me the same thing.
" we just pulled the next plate from the pile and stuck it on, that's the unit number it got "

That's the answer. Hope that helps you some.
