Museum Delivery question
For those of you who have done it, I have a technical question. The form says you are responsible for tags. Generally, you would get a 30 day tag from the dealer to give you time to get real plates once you take delivery. How does this work at the museum when your dealer is in a different state. And yes, I can call MacMaulkin if no one knows but understand they are busy right now and thought someone on here may have a quick answer.

6 years ago—Rick Conti at OH dealer got me Ohio temp sticker and sent it to me Fed Ex. Got MI title and plate couple weeks later.

The selling dealership should send a temporary tag to you or the NCM. That's what Mike Furman did for me when I took NCM delivery of my 2017 Grand Sport.

I've done 2 NCM deliveries. Kerbeck had the NJ temp tag sent to the museum and then processed my FL plate for me and had it mailed to my home. Selling dealer should know all of this and make it simple for you.

Will likely still do this. Obviously a lot of time before I need to worry about it so thought I would get some cursory information here. Appreciate all of the responses.
