I don't think so Steve. However, it would be cool if it did!

Stevo, check the following link. You'll have to prove limited production. I can't find any info on what the limited production number is.

Steve,
Some of the Impala guys have collector plates. I believe you have to provide some documentation and also restricted driving. Like parades, shows and the like.

While we're in the 'hood', how's the Kenne Bell been doin'?Mike, when we were out in Chicago earlier this month, Zack started it for us. Remember the Simpson's episode where Homer designed a car for his half-brother?

"And when I start the engine, I want it to sound like the world is coming to an end!"

That was Zack's car...

What Stevo speaks of is that in Ohio, for many years now, "COLLECTOR PLATES" have been available in Ohio. Completely separate from what we also offer, "HISTORICAL PLATES" FOR CARS OVER 25 YEARS OF AGE, these plates are for limited production autos and such. Ohio has a list. If you're not on it, your'e out of luck. Most folks going the COLLECTOR PLATE route in Ohio, do so because these vehicles once plated in this fashion, are now excempt from any futher emissions inspections.

I have have seen every POS imaginable with those plates around here, all serving the same purpose. No e-checks. I once had them on a 1980 Mazda RX7.

I am not sure, but I think the plates may be no longer available as a result of abuse.

Yup...these are the plates I am speaking of. When we were at the Track, several guys had them, including the Green F-Body (Anthony).

Got to admit...they WOULD be nice :D

Before going this route, look into the insurability of a vehicle registered in such a fashion. I wanted to put Historic or collector plates on my Thunderbird (which qualifies) but alas, Insurance companies won't allow me to drive the car anywhere. They say it has to be trailered to events. If damage occurs from driving around, I would be SOL.

As a result, I have Liability only and regular plates on the car. As for emmissions, anything before 1972 had no emmissions. My t-bird has an inspection sticker they put on trailers. It is safety only....Brakes and lights and horn.

Hey, what happens if I am pulled over for not wearing my seatbelt? It has no shoulder strap, only a lap belt.

I believe if a car only came equipped with lap belts, you're fine. As long as they are buckled around you.

Thanks,

That's pretty reasonable insurance. The liabilty coverage is fairly low though. Quoted me $158 per year, that's what I pay per 6 months.....

Anyone have experience with above mentioned insurance.????
