Is this the "Computer Museum of America" in La Mesa? When I visited in 1999, I also spotted a nice license plate (see below). It took me a while to find the analog pictures and scan them in.

I was really jealous, because my first car was a metallic sky-blue VW beatle (built 1971) that I liked so much, and back in 1999 I was so-to-say "Mr. Debug" in the department where I was working because I wrote a low-level-debugger in C and x86 assembler for an embedded device that communicated via RS232 with a high-level-language debugger on a Windows PC. The latter one was bought from an external company and only adapted for our needs. But I completely managed that topic, i.e. I wrote the requirements, selected the product, managed the contact with the external company, specified the serial protocol together with them, and finally tested everything.

Another hobby of mine is collecting license plates. I collect Mexican, NFL and NHL license plates. I never thought there was such a thing as collecting license plates related to electronics.
If anyone is interested in seeing my collection of license plates, I'm willing to post a link to them.

La Mesa in San Diego? I didn't know there is a Computer Museum there. Just went there last summer.

This trip I went to the computer history museum and Intel Museum in San Francisco and saw some awesome stuff....
