I agree with you that it was a stupid idea that someone in Harrisburg had to put a Tin Lizzy on all Antique plates but there is a way around it . Most of the guys in my area are taking a picture of their own car and laminating it to protect it and gluing it over the Tin Lizzy. I'm fortunate that I still have the original purple Antique plate on mine.

I'm not sure. I have only been living in Lakeland since 2010..

Never see any C3s' on the road around here. Would be nice to see one once in a while. Tired of all the cookie cutter cars and SUVs'

Three C3's went by the store this morning, didn't even slow down as they passed thru Oscoda, likely they were headed down for Woodward Ave. Mike
