That is probably as close as you will get but still not 100%.

Plenty of pre 82, and 82 to 86 cars, with white plates front and rear

If the reg of the vehicle is in the Year-County-Number format (eg. 65-MH-219) then the plates have to be the Euro White type.
For the Black plates there is an official size and font type, so Fancy lettering isn't legal.
