I don't remember all of them.

Use for parades, club activities and shows, esentially one day a week. Don't remember if there's a milage restriction. I know my insurance has a 2500-3000 anual limit. (ssshhhh, disconnect your speedometer) but I would never do such a thing.

Must be 25+ years in age. No safety or emission inspection which means YOU better be sure of the vehicle's safe operation. One time fee for registration.

Classic plates (15yr + older) have an anual safety inspection, otherwise pretty much the same. If you don't trust your mechanical abilities or don't want to do the work, go with the "classic" plate and take it to a garage..

I have classics on my 80, but will be switching to antique before my next inspection is due. The only difference between the two is the requirement for a safety inspection on classic(classic is 15 years+). The restrictions are otherwise as Jughead described.

There's no regular monitoring on the mileage or usage, so it would be up to a cop spotting you every day or something like that for them to check your mileage vs waht the mileage reported on the title was for a comparison.

I interpreted the restrictions to say One day a week AND for club events and parades. Therefore I can drive it to work on friday and cruise it on Saturday with my club. OR if I average the number of days it is laid up in the winter....

Don't worry about any restrictions. There is no one monitoring your use of your vette. You have to provide 4 pics of your car when you submit the paperwork. I have heard of some who where challenged about their vette at the DMV. I went to a private business that does tags. I gave him the pics and paperwork. About 2 weeks later I picked up my plate and gave him some money. It's a one time registration fee for antique. No emissions or inspection.

I don't think you can drive it at night also.
