What have you done today with your Austin Seven

Either way, the plate finishes the car off beautifully.

It's a cheat! 

I did the artwork in Adobe Illustrator. A bit of messing around with a rather ugly combination of letters and numbers.

The main font is Myriad Pro but the 'J' is Arial, cropped at the top.

The numbers are resized to match the 'P' and there is kerning (space adjustment) of the whole lot. 

The vinyl letters were cut on a Roland sign cutter from APS Matt Sahara sign vinyl.

I must point out that I was responsible only for the number plates. All the important main work was done by Martin Whittaker in remarkably quick time.
