Starting Jan 1, 2012, Sec of State will have a new unlimited antique vehicle plate. It's $45 per year (more than antique plates, but 1/2 reg price). From April - Oct, there's unlimited driving about so you won't have to come up with a car show or service place to be going to or coming from. Although I hope to have my car out in March and Nov, the usual restrictions will be in place.

There's also a strange addition that will allow you to display a plate from the year of your car or representing the make or model, as long as your normal plates and registraton are also in the car. I'm hoping this will also be enough loophole so I don't have to mount the front plate. I almost picked up a 1965 plate at an antique store and might go back for it now. Although I won't be surprised if the police push to have this part repealed.

I'll be going to the DMV in Jan, so I can also get personalized plates, so I can get my first pick - but what I'll get will depend on how many digits will be allowed. Anyone else?
