I had not previously considered historical plates but my insurance company offered me a substantial savings if I have historical license plates.
However this means only shows & parades. How closely is this monitored? Thanks David |

I'd base your insurance needs on how the car will be used.
It's worth a phone call to both your current DD insurance company and Haggerty to find out what is available. If you plan on using the car only occasionally, Historic plates are probably the way to go. My car is a daily driver most of the year. I like taking it on road trips. I didn't want any restrictions on how, when or why I drive it. I went with regular registration and added it to my DD insurance policy at an agreed upon value of $14K with full coverage and a low deductible. Factoring in the multi-car discount I received, it was only a few dollars more than going with antique plates and insurance through Haggerty. I take it for PA state inspection annually, but it doesn't bother me. |
