I was just wondering how many people have the historic tags? And if you do if the cops harass u. Im in ohio so this cant be a daily driver which it isnt but they say parades, car shows, club events, and the mechanic. So do you think i would get harassed if i was just out cruising on a nice day since it not a quote unquote ""muscle car from the 60's? "" unquote quote?

Nope. I've never been harassed. Most of it is positive comments, even from one cop that did pull me over for a speeding warning, in that she couldn't believe such an "antique car" looked like mine (although my car is a firm "20 footer")





In Arkansas, there is no driving limitations to having 'antique tags.' The big deal is you have to have a vehicle that is registered with normal tags, which is not an issue with me as the Fiero is not my daily driver. The only other things is there cannot be any major modifications that make the car look different than what it is, except if it is for safety (upgrading to modern brakes, modern wheels and tires, modern lighting, etc). Many people get away with modding however, as you do not have to renew antique tags and as long as you have another vehicle with normal tags the car is never inspected.

Im in Columbus. I dont have any with 'historical' plates, but I have used all kinds of plates without any hassles. Ive used unregistered plates with cars model year, brand plates (like DODGE), and never had a problem. When I take the Caddy to shows I even stick on tags at both ends that say USA 1 and not even a state tag. I just have regular registered plates in the car with me. I have lots of friends that have Historical tags and drive them for pleasure all the time, just not as a driver or work car. You might if you say stop at the same coffee shop every day going to work and a cop notices it. As long as you have another car registered that you drive regularly, you wont have any trouble. " IF " you would be stopped and asked, just tell them your going to get some work done or going to a club meeting...what are they going to do follow you to a garage ?

Another thing you might look into is Collector tags. Ohio issues them and there are no requirements or limitations...you just state your driving a collectible type car. It might have changed, I havent got one of those in years myself but had them on a Lincoln I had.

In ohio get the collector car plates. No real restrictions on driving like the antique plates. I would have those because it is then echeck exempt but I got a ticket in the car for speeding so I went with my combat veteran plates. Those plates normaly get you out of trouble with the state boys as well.

I've put 21 miles on her in the past 8 years.
2 1/2 of those were around the track at Indy...so miles are not an issue.

I have historics on mine. In MD there is only one restriction its not driven daily, and all that means is you cant drive it 7 days a week. If you drive it Six your ok, and the tags don't expire nor do they have to go through emissions or inspection.

I am in Ohio and I have historics on the Fiero.

The basic deal is just don't get them and try to drive it to work everyday. If the car is in good shape and they don't see you coming home at 5 O Clock everyday no one will hassle you in anyway,

Do not fool with the collector plates if the car is over 25 years old as you will have to pay for them every year like normal plates.

For what you want to do with the car the historics will suit you fine. You pay the one time and they are good for 50 years. Too many people get scared off on the wording. All of that is to prevent guys like the rusted out Volvo wagon I see around Akron with ladders on the roof being used as a work truck with historic plates. I am sure he may get questioned at some point with the ladders and paint in the rear. As for a clean Fiero and out for a drive or quick trip to the store it is not an issue. You can even take it to work once in a while and no one will ever say a word.

Remember condition of the car says a lot of how it is used. If the car looks like a winter beater and historic plates they may think consider it is used for more than show use.

So to sum it up get the historics and don't look back.

in chedderland you cant drive in january and have to have one other licensed vehicle. i drove on new years and today with no issues but i dont take the fiero out in the winter unless its really nie weather (new years) or i absolutely have to (other car is acting funny) like today.

I have 2 other registered, truck/jeep, and mine is also an indy for point of reference. Its not the cleanest as of yet but it is all original.
also a 20 footer

I mostly agree with you. Chances of a problem are unlikely. I just mentioned the Collector tag because its 100% safe to use anytime. Getting stopped is simply a cops descretion. He might wonder for example why your car is parked in a shopping mall or grocery store with Historic tags. But like I said you can just tell them your on your way to a meeting or whatever. ie/ dark tinted windows are illegal here too and I know of people with black ones that have never got stopped for them. Fiero Lisa from here had her side windows just slightly darker than legal and she got stopped 2 times in a year for them. Last cop (ya he was a prick) told her she had to remove it on the spot or he was impounding her car. She got a $100 ticket for them anyway. Most of the people I know with Historical tags just dont drive them except for a little road cruise or car show. I just dont get them myself because I dont want any hastle at all about them. Its not a big deal to me to buy new stickers every year. One time I would say your prob going to have a problem is if your in school and you park your car with those tags on it on campus. Your going to be on the cops radar.

I agree with you... I have the Antique plate on my Indy, but if I ever get it to where I can drive it I would probably go back to the regular plates. I have already been harassed by my homeowners assn twice for parking a "disabled" car on the street with no inspection (antique cars in Texas don't need inspection). But I know at the end of the day it's another excuse for cops to stop me and I really don't need that.

The nice thing about historic tags in Maryland is they look exactly like regular tags except for the word "historic" on the bottom of the plate. So some thick plate frames were in order. Covers it up and unless you know that all historic tags end in Z in Maryland you would not be any wiser. I got pulled over once on a military base where the cops can give tickets and are usually the most anal and douchey of cops. This guy didn't even mention it. I thought for sure he would.

As many people I know with historic plates I have never seen anyone pulled over just for them. Second of all the cops I know they could care less as few car with historic plates are an issue as if you have them odds the car is special and the owner is going to be treating it well. None worry if you take it to the store or school. Now if you had that beat up Volvo I mentioned with the paint cans and ladders on it that could be an issue. It was clear what his intent would be.

The issue with collector plates is that they really only get you out of E check and not really anything else. You pay yearly for them like any other plate so if you have no e check you really don't need them. Also you have to be on their list of cars that can get them. Ohio will no longer just issue them anylonger to any car unless it is on their approved list. It covers many cars but it does leave some off. My buddy could not get them for his 93 Vette. It is not on the list.

The bottom line is if the cops uses the historic plate seen at a store to pull you over he will get you for something else as there is more of a reason he wants you than just the plate. The paperwork for the plate is not worth his time or you are in some small town and some odd Barney Fife had nothing else to do.

Odds are better to get pulled over for no front plate in Ohio than any historic plate. I know here in Akron I have seen Corvettes with one historic plate on the rear sitting at the police parking lot downtown. Bob and other cops I knew could care less about no front plate let alone historic.

I know with the state police as long as you have a front plate they could care less. I know that from my own personel contact and still did not get a ticket. That is the same group who wants the death penalty for speeding. LOL!

I know the NAM plates on the father in laws truck do help at times.

Minnesota divides this category into four plates: Pioneer, Classic, Collector, and Street Rod.

Each one can be applied for by completing an Application for Special Plates. Each one can also be a custom plate.

Pioneer Plates
Any vehicle manufactured before 1936 and retained as a collector's item can display these plates.

Classic Plates
These plates can be displayed on any vehicle manufactured from 1925 to 1948 that's deemed a classic car by the registrar of motor vehicles. The criteria for this designation includes superior workmanship, design, elite engineering standards, and proof the vehicle is only used as a collector's item.

Collector Plates
Any vehicle that's at least 20 model years old and manufactured after 1935 can display these plates, providing you, the owner, also have at least one other vehicle registered in Minnesota. This is what we have with custom plates "FUN4US".

Street Rod Plates
You qualify for these plates if your vehicle was manufactured before 1949 or was recreated to resemble a vehicle manufactured before 1949. You must also have at least one other vehicle registered in Minnesota.

Basically:
Must also have a D.D. registered in order to have a car in one of these catagories.
Can’t use as a D. D. Can be used for Joy Rides, Parades, Car Club/Show or other special events. Basically can’t go shopping in it or take to work.

This is unique; if you can find a MN License plate with the sticker/stamping of year the car was manufactured the owner can have that plate registered to the car.

I wish I lived in your universe. Unfortunately I have been pulled over for so many questionable reasons by the Police it's ridiculous. Houston is the 4th largest city in the USA so it hardly is only small town hick cops that harass people. They will stop you for no front tag, burned out taillight, crossing the white line when they think you shouldn't have, turning too wide, the list is endless. I'm getting a dash cam so next time I would rather just play the tape in court and show the cop being a douche. Saving $40 bucks a year on tags is really not worth the hassle that HPD is capable of dishing out.

I live in Ohio. They have plates that signify that I served in the persian gulf during combat operations. Your dd214 will indicate the theater you were in. I know Ohio also has Nam plates as well. Seriously they are worth their weight in gold. I have been pulled over by 2 state troopers in different states and never got a ticket in one of my cars with those plates. Prior to that I had navy plates but never got stopped. When I had temp tags on my fiero I got a ticket. Not since I got these plates. Also new for Ohio you can get your veteran status identified on your drivers license. That was one of my suggestions to several congress people. Lo and behold a year later it happened. Dont worry the politians didn't give me credit just form letters thanking me for my ideas.

In many large areas the only tool cops have to deal with problems is to look for small things. It is a pain for the legal guys but it is their only tool to deal with some issue.

Just watch cops when they see things that just don't look right. Often it is someone buying meth or doing other things they should not be. The only reason they caught them is because of the broken tail lamp. You think you put up with a lot of crap you should see the flip side they put up with too.

I am not going to say that all cops are good. There are some Barneys out there but on the other hand there are many good ones trying to deal with the scum with one arm tied behind their backs.

I have some cop friends and a couple FBI buddies and the crap they have to deal with because of some of the idiots out there.

The deal with getting pulled over is where you are and often you have given them a reason. A broken tail lamp has been and still is a violation. No from plate in some areas is a violation. If you choose to drive with these that is your choice and your risk. Too many times small things like this has lead to picking up some bad people. Just watch cops and see how many guys with no plate or broken tail lamps lead to people with warrants, stolen guns and drugs in the car.

Like most things how things are just depends on where you live. Houston is not what I would call a major crime free zone.

I find that here in Texas "Antique" plates are helpful if you have a "Garage Queen" as I do. I only drove the car to meets, shows, and cruises etc. Paid $63.00+ every year for registration, $15.00 year for safety inspections (no E check in my county), and $240+/- for basic liability insurance. Total $318 annually. Now with Antique plates registration is $50 for FIVE (5) years (plus $3 for county), no safety inspection or e check, and $137 a year for a $6000 agreed value full coverage from American Collectors Insurance. Total $147.xx annually. I'm saving money and using it for the same purposes. The insurance does have a 2500 annual mileage restriction and requires it to be housed in a locked facility. It also requires that each licensed driver in the household have another vehicle for daily use. I can increase the mileage restriction by notifying the insurance company and paying a little higher premium.
Police don't seem to even notice the car any more. I get a few odd stares/comments from other drivers that don't think Fieros should qualify for antique status but that's their problem. Most people don't realize that Fieros are that old now.
For other states you'll have to research it. There are many differences.

I live in the big city too and some cops WILL take the time to hassle you. Last week it snowed and I took a friends 85 yo mother to the grocery store. I used her handicap pass to park by the entrance. I came out and found a cop who parked his car and was walking thru all the handicapped parking spots. He was checking the registration numbers and car registration by calling each one in. He ticketed ones that didnt match. In Ohio anyway, a driver CAN legally use a pass to take someone who has one somewhere. I told him I was bringing the lady and using hers. He said take it to court and walked away. I went to the police station and told them what happened and they just asked her name and checked it. Clerk told me to bring in her pass and show it and it would be dismissed. So took me 2 trips to station to fix it plus driving back to her house twice. Could have easily been taken care of by the prick officer on the spot seeing her with a walker getting in the van....Moral, they will waste their time.

We have one for my mom too. Never had an issue. But on the other hand I have seen many who are not disabled using the spots. My father was paralized for 40 years and often had people parking there that were faking their way.

The Cop should have taken the time to see if you really had a older disabled woman but you also have to consider how many stories he has heard over the years too. Like Dr House says People Lie.

quote Originally posted by hyperv6: Just watch cops when they see things that just don't look right. ...

I don't disagree with anything you said, but my point, on topic, is that in Texas the antique plate is unusual. Having no front license plate (while legal when combined with an antique plate) is unusual. Having no inspection sticker, (legal with an antique plate) but it's unusual.

Most cops, (many, a few, some?) might not be aware of the special rules for antique plates in Texas. This gives them a reason to be suspicious and they might decide to pull a person over for that reason alone. None of that is illegal. The broken taillight was not a good example, but I have been pulled over for driving on the while line. That is the biggest load of crap I have ever heard of. First of all I didn't do it, second of all so what if I did, does that warrant a traffic stop? And why was I detained for nearly an hour while they begged and pleaded to search my truck? (I declined the search)

The point is that in Texas the antique plate gives cops another reason to pull you over. If getting pulled over unnecessarily is not on your list of issues then go for it. But when mine expire I'm going back to the $40 a year plates.

Sounds like you have other reason they have an interest in you. Something must be drawing attention to you. They must think you are a coyote with illegals hind in the trunck of the Fiero. LOL!

They used to stop cars on I-5 North in California to check for Illegals. When ever I was driving the 911 they always just waived me through.

Also in Ohio you can use old plates from the year of the car if you want in place of the Historic plate. In other words you can register 1968 Ohio Plates on your car in place of the historic. I wanted to use the ones I had on the Fiero in 1985 but they are not year plates and have stickers only so there was little point in doing this. That would really mess with you Texas Law if they already have issues with Historic plates.

quote Originally posted by hyperv6: That would really mess with you Texas Law if they already have issues with Historic plates.

Actually Texas does allow year of issue plates as well. But like you said it would only be useful if you have the really old plates with the year stamped on them. I would only do that on a true garage queen.

Yes Ive done that as mentioned....but you still are required to carry proper registered plates IN the car with you. This is also what I do when I use DODGE or USA-1 plates.

I rigged a slide bracket behind the radiator in my notch back nose on my car. Hooked it to a choke cable and put my plate on it. If needed I push the cable in under the dash and the plate is displayed in the air dam. Pull it out and the plate is gone.

The crazy thing is I did it without drilling a single hole.

It comes in handy if you think they may be watching,

On my HHR SS I have a electric one. I press a remote and it slides out from under the car and flips up.

If anything it attracts a crowd at the local cruise in.

I have collectors for my fiero for another year. I plan on going to historical as well when it hits 25 years old. I actually received a set of ohio green plates with 88 stickers on them. I know a few cars that have run the plates from the years the car was produced even the sticker as long as the plate is of correct color. You can actually go online and find what year plates where made for what year other then the stamped date plates. I will do anything so i don't get the new plates Ohio is running. My collectors plates are the red white blue by one month so lucky on that. I actually fear when i have to buy a new car because I hate Ohio's new plates can we do anymore cartoon style plates i miss our white with colored righting plates and not these cartoons we have now.
As far as problems with historical I have heard that around Solon and Oakwood areas the police know when the cruises are and have been Di**ks. I even have heard in Solon on cruise nights cars have been pulled over for not having there front plates. The publication cruisin times has really helped the police know when you should be out and when you should not be.At the same time knowing when the cruises are you can avoid issues to. So if your debating on what plates to run talk to people at your local cruises and see what they say.

Heres the tags I drive to and from car shows all over Ohio. I know more than once I was followed by highway patrol for miles. Ive never been stopped but I do have a legal regular set of tags behind the drivers seat I use at other times.

Presidential tags say USA -1....nothing to do with Chevy. Obamas new Presidential tags are blue with white letters, also USA-!. I also drive in in local parades with a police escort. Newspaper photos from a few big car show this summer. I did stop at a no parking curb at Muskinghum College and the local police drove by and stopped to look to see if i was parked. With the seal, flags and tags, they just drove off. Photo appeared in New Concord local paper.

Anyone from Michigan know how they handle the historic plates when it comes to running around on the streets. Have any of you been pulled over while using them for other than parade or show use?

From the MI Secretary of State website:

"Many antique cars, trucks, and motorcycles qualify for special registration as Michigan historical
vehicles. A qualifying vehicle may be registered with the Michigan Secretary of State either with a
Michigan historical vehicle plate, or an actual Michigan license plate of the same model year the
vehicle was manufactured.

A Historical vehicle must be:
• 26 or more years old -- based on model year
• Owned solely as a collector’s item
• Used only for events such as historical club activities, parades, and car shows.
Note: A vehicle registered with a historical plate cannot be used for routine transportation."

That pretty much reads like most states I know of. I dont have any first hand knowlege of anyone ever stopped like just going for a cruise or out on a date or dinner. I wouldnt get caught with it in your work parking lot everyday. Some cop may get wise. Ill still say parked in a parking lot like a mall or theater may get some attention. They would just ask what your doing or where your going with that tag. Just tell them your on your way to a show/ club meeting/ mechanic. I dont see one following you to make sure. Im sure Mich people would prob tell you the same thing.

Not to hi jack this thread to much but seeing how many ohio guys are in here I have one question. Does anyone know where to get the old county stickers that we used to have on the bottom of the plates. I am specifically looking for a Green cuyahoga sticker to fix my plates I am working on. Havent gone to a sign shop because it needs to be that reflective material.

Sorry but what you have may have had the Chevy left off but they are still the old USA-1 Chevy plates to me LOL!

Dinah Shore had that plate before Bama.

Neat car!

I saw no respondants from NJ.I have an 87 GT.Will I be able to use antique tags on it this year?I have personalized tags on my 88GT right now that I was thinking of transfering to the 87.

You cant get an old sticker unless you can get one off of a junkyard car without falling apart. Other sources are like EBay for old licence plates or go to one of the big swap meets. I go to Springfield 3 times a year and there is always thousands of old tags there for sale Next one is Fri, Sat and Sun of Memorial Day weekend. You probably will have to buy the whole tag...they usually have matched pairs.

Thanks Roger. Kinda figure the same, just wondering how snotty they might be around here. I would like to do it as I believe the registration cost is allot less. Another option is to get a blue MI plate from '87 with a '87 year sticker on it. They will let you have the model year plate, but if those plates came with a year validation sticker you have to have that sticker. I have a few of the blue plates, just no '87 stickers.

Pretty cool Caddy there! I'll bet that creates lots of great convesation at the shows. Good work!
