Re: [Chevelle-List]was Auto Movers ,black plates
Here in Virginia we get antique plates and no longer need to get an annual inspection. As long as you are not driving the car more than 600 miles a year. The plates are a one time fee and never expire. They have no way of knowing how many miles you drive. My neighbor across the street he has classic plates on his 72 elky SS because he drives it daily got an inspection sticker.

RE: [Chevelle-List]was Auto Movers ,black plates
When I registered my 69 in Virginia, I questioned the lady at the DMV about the difference between antique tags and regular tags. I don't remember anything about the 600 mile rule. I was told: 1) Keep the vehicle within 250 miles from home. 2) One time fee ($10) for the tags and no inspections. 3) Restrict driving to and from parades, holidays, Sunday pleasure drives, car shows, test driving and some occasional pleasure driving. I told her it was a muscle car from the 60's and would be a pleasure to drive anytime. She smiled and said just don't drive it to work. So I got the antique tags and contacted my insurance co. I was told by them that since it had those tags, and I wasn't going to be driving it that much, they could insure it for $8,000, full coverage, for $138 a year as opposed to about $800 a year for a daily driver! What a deal!

Re: [Chevelle-List]was Auto Movers ,black plates
Wisconsin has similar plates available. At least a couple of different types - Collectors or Antique, maybe more. Non-expiring, one-time fee, etc. I think they are not valid in January...certainly not a problem with most of our cars! I did use my convertible in a Winterfest parade one time, and had no problems with anybody. And once a plate is issued, the number is mine and I can put other cars on the same number series, but with a new plate with a suffix of B, C, or something. And that fee is cheaper than the original. A good deal for those fortunate to have more than one 'investment' car. I haven't checked into that second registration yet, but will when 'my wife's' '66 SS hardtop is done!

I can always say that I am testing my rally gauges that don't work. This is a state regulated thing though so every state is different. For example, I paid 100 bucks and I never have to pay another dime. The insurance company does limit me to 5000 miles a year.
