[Spridgets] Almost "Perfect" historic plate

I found a Michigan License plate at my folks house that is almost 
perfect for a historic front plate on my Sprite when I get it 
finished. My car is a 1966 and so is the plate. The letters/numbers 
are: VB1078. You can choose what you want for the letters; "VB", but 
I will forgo the obvious and choose that these mean - Very British! 
My car has a 1098 cc engine so it is too bad that the number is 20 
short of the correct displacement, but since the plate will have no 
legal meaning, I may cheat and paint over the 7 and make it into a 9. 
Winter - Water Wonderland!

I spotted a yellow Spridget I could see from the US23 X-way near the 
Ohio border on Sat and Sunday sitting in the side yard of a house. A Lister??
