It would be worth a fair bit I'd imagine. Would look better with black background and white/silver font though.

couple thousand minimum? That's a plate we all want I'd imagine and something I'd display happily if it didn't cost me a house deposit.

I'd hazard a guess it might be owned by some bigwig from Titan Ford or McInerney Ford

Hmmm that look like it badge as GT-P as all the lettering are red while the GT-E badge had Red GT lettering while the E is Chrome. So this may be a GT-P with a bootlid spoiler from the GTE.
Got a feeling one of Perth car yard own this car!

yeh i noticed it said GTP too which confused me a little..
it's also a bit ironic that they have the plate "FORD" on a car that has gone out of its way to not really be recognised as one (FPV badges instead of Ford on FG FPV's) but either way it's quite a plate to have. |

I think my mates (on here too) dads plate would be worth more victorian ones just with GT on them.

i really don't understand why people would spend so much on a number plate. Fair enough spend on the car, but plates? Anything more than a few hundred is a rip in my opinion.

Yes - I'm pretty sure the answer has been given - owner of dealer McInerny Ford.

In Canberra, Vehicle makes are $4,068
Also we don't pay an annual fee to keep the plates like some states do.

Pretty sure it is Dennis McInerney. He has had thos eplates for a while, hence the FORD on an FPV.

In Victoria the plates "FORD" are on a very nice traditional style, black, 32 roadster hotrod. A very worthy car.

Yes, it's D mac's car and yes it is a GTE.
I had a good look at it last Saturday before our club meeting.

Those would be very expensive plates, if you look in a unique cars mag there are lots of plates like that for sale, some people wanting thousands and thousands for certain ones! :

Remember the 'E' badge is not the same style, shape or size as the GT ot GTP badges. (has already been pointed out, I know) It is spaced away from the GT part of the badge too, the 'P' in GTP would sit much closer.
