I'm a So Cal native. From cars that either I, my friends or my family have owned, the following first letters on a CA Black Plate related approximately to the following years:
U, V - 1967 W, X - 1968 Y, Z - 1969
What this really means is that the car has been registered in CA all of it's life and therefore the owner can make the claim of "rust free"
FYI Quenton - Black/Yellow plates were Letters then Numbers, Blue plates were Numbers/letters
