Who is running collector plates or historical plates.
I am thinking of historical for my 1979.

I looked into doing that here in MI, but the response I got was that with historical plates, the car could only be driven in parades. Mine is a daily driver, so decided against historical plates. Would've gotten a insurance break with historical plates.

Historical on all of mine.

Why give Gov. Tax any more $$$

WANTED:::

Looking for a set, or one of the Yellow & Red plates that are given to the one's that get a DUI.

Don't want to go out and receive a DUI just to have the plates on the car.

I got collectors on my (then new) 2002 Corvette - didn't want the dopers at the E-Tax station touching my car.

The wife wanted to get historical plates for her 1973, but didn't like the restrictions that were placed on their useage. So she went with normal passenger plates for it.
