Oregon License Plates has new owners!

Oregon License Plates was started in the mid sixties by Wayne Andrus. He was a machinist by trade and invented a machine that helps in the process of restoring the plates. Wayne worked the business for 30 years, doing the Portland Swap Meet as his main way of contacting customers. He helped write the Special Interest Law for the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles.  He then sold the business in 1996 to Mike and Eileen Fahlgren.

Mike worked hard at the business, growing it more each year, developing new ways to straighten the plates and making the quality more and more like new. He had the website built, bringing in more business.  He still participated in the Portland Swap Meet in April and also the Redmond, Oregon Swap Meet in September, but did no other advertising. The quality of his work and his integrity in business brought in more than enough work to keep the business growing.

April 7th 2006, at the Portland Swap Meet,  Mike and Eileen Fahlgren handed the reigns to   Don and Tamara Brown.

We are close friends with the Fahlgren's and live only a few miles from each other. We are involved in old car shows together, buy and  sell antiques, golf together and attend the same church in Redmond. Mike has worked hard to train us in all aspects of the restoration process.  We are excited and working hard to keep the same quality, integrity and professionalism foremost in our new adventure.

We would like to publicly thank the Fahlgrens for making it possible for us to purchase this business and we hope they will be proud of the direction we take it in the coming years.

We will be at the Portland Swap Meet in April
