Sorry for the late reply, but back in the 60-70s, NSW plates were more orange than yellow.

Probably from that era and transferred to newer vehicles.

Looks like a custom plate to me. You can get that style at myplates.com.au.

Yes but it’s the colour which makes it look vintage.

The old colour was a “yolky” yellow which was first adopted in 1951. The paint became reflective in 1980 and standard plates are lemon yellow.

The old thread should have a link as the last post linking to this new thread.

It looked like someone was hand cleaning the NBN live camera tonight around 6.20ish.

Also some tech issues, not acknowledging live reporters leaving an awkward silence before moving on.

Sport was partly covered from Hunter Stadium tonight, ahead of tonight’s Knights v Dolphins game, done by Sophie Scanlon, who covered all the NRL news.

She did an interview with the Knights manager Peter Parr and voiced over other NRL news. Oddly they didn’t air any of the Nine Sydney NRL reports .

She then crossed back to Montanna Clare in the studio for the rest of the sports news.

Though were a lot of audio and video glitches from the stadium, which also appeared to result in Sophie and Montanna talking at the same time

Also noticed the Central Coast windows were a bit mistimed, kicking in a tad early clipping the audio at the end of the last report.

There were also 4 Central Coast news/sports reports, but also 5 or 6 Newcastle items aired across Northern NSW. Both were more than they usually do.
