WASHNGTON STATE:
Vehicle requirements
To use collector plates, vehicles must be:
- More than 30 years old.
- Capable of operating on the highway.
- Owned and operated as collector vehicles.
Collector vehicles may be driven:
- To and from auto shows, circuses, parades, displays, special excursions, and antique car club meetings.
- For testing purposes.
- For the pleasure of others without compensation.
Collector vehicles may not be used for:
- Commercial purposes or to carry a load.
- Regular transportation in the manner of a fully licensed vehicle.
License plate requirements
Collector license plates:
- May be assigned to currently registered passenger vehicles, motorcycles, or trucks.
- Are good for the life of vehicle.
- Aren’t required to display month/year tab.
- Aren’t renewed annually.
- Must be displayed on the rear of the vehicle. (You must provide your restored or current license plates. If you provide a set, the collector vehicle plates may be displayed on the front and rear of the vehicle).

Historical Plates and Vintage Plates
What is a historical vehicle or a vintage vehicle?
A historical vehicle is a vehicle that is more than 25 years old. A vehicle qualifies for a historical registration when it begins the 26th model year. For example, a 1978 model vehicle qualifies for historical registration in 2004.
Some vehicles that are less than 25 years old and have unique characteristics can qualify for a historical registration. The DMV determines if the vehicle has historical, classic or exhibit value.
A vintage vehicle is a historical vehicle and receives a historical registration. The registrant of a vintage vehicle can put vintage plates on the vehicle. Vintage plates are authentic NYS vehicle plates that were issued during the model year of the vehicle. More information about vintage plates appears below.
Is a historical registration different from a standard registration?
Yes. You cannot use a historical vehicle for daily transportation. An automobile collector normally registers a historical vehicle or a vintage vehicle to use it for exhibits, club activities, tours, and parades.
Is a historical registration or a vintage registration valid for one year or for two years?
Historical registrations and vintage registrations are valid for one year.
Is special insurance required for a historical registration?
Yes. Contact your insurance company to get information about insurance for a historical vehicle or a vintage vehicle.
The insurance identification card that is issued to you must display the word "HISTORICAL" to indicate the type of insurance coverage that is provided. "Antique" and "classic" are not acceptable words.

Florida laws are a little iffy on Antique plates. It has to be 30 years old to begin with, and there are two types, a permanent and one renewed every year. The one that has to be renewed every year has no restrictions on driving limits. The permanent is for driving to and from car shows, parades, and "public display." I read an interesting thread on a military vehicle forum where they discussed what constitutes "public display". It was argued that anytime the vehicle is on public roadways, it is on public display. They could find no case law to support or refute this idea. I know I wouldn't try it.
Plus, I really like my WANKEL plate. I wouldn't be able to have that if I ever went to an Antique plate. They are sequentially numbered in Florida.

I can't wait till my 7's are elligible for antique tags. Once they're tagged as an antique, you don't need to have any state inspections or emissions tests performed, you only pay for the registration once, for the entire time the car is registered as an antique, AND our antique tags look like this:
Sexy black and white!!
Forgot to mention, our antique tags are mileage regulated, but I have no idea how that works, because my 200sx is registered as an antique and I used to daily drive it. Never got in trouble for it.

I remember my uncle having historical plates on his 80 vw rabbit here in CA years ago... I don't know what it entitles here, but looking online, for CA it is 25 years old.
It may be nice for us modified cars in Cali, Im thinking a typical cop might notice the plates and figure "ehhh its an old car.." and disregard pulling it over for exhaust or whatever .

Nope. There is no point here in RI. This state is retarded anyways and has ridiculous laws. Hopefully I move out of this god awful state soon.
Antique Plates
You can apply for antique plates if your vehicle is at least 25 years old and used only for exhibitions, parades, car club activities, etc. No inspection is required. If you also want to use your vehicle for everyday functions, apply for a dual registration. This option does require a vehicle inspection.
