Indiana

PASSENGER - 1984 "WANDER" base

Passenger:  Up to 1980 ("81" dated base), Indiana issued yearly plates.  The first multiyear base was issued in 1981 featuring a farm scene at the top with the "Hoosier State" slogan.  This design and the next three designs, "WANDER", "Back Home Again", and "Hoosier Hospitality", were each used for three years.  Thereafter, each base has been used for five years before being replaced with a new design.  For all designs, everyone received a new plate upon each redesign.  Because Indiana county codes the plates (see Indiana county codes), the pages can get enormous to download.  Beginning with the 1984 "WANDER" design, I have split the pages into the following bases, each being a link to my website page of that type:

1984 "Wander" base:  This design began in 1984 ("85" renewal stickers).  To the left of the letter in the plate number is the county code and the year sticker has to have the same county code (see Indiana county codes).
