Agreed, as much as I'd like to see PA take Jersey's lead I doubt it will ever happen, too much money to be made. I'm old enough to remember twice a year vehicle registration and I think it took heavenly intervention to change it to once a year. I remember my dad griping about it every six months.

But let's not forget the wonder of PA classic registration. Car must be 15 years or older, there's no yearly mileage restriction, no emissions testing and it's a once-and-done registration. Winning!



legally you can only drive it once a week


That is not true. You can use it for parades, tours, club activities AND "occasional use" which is defined as 1 day per week. It's very vague and completely unenforceable.

interesting. I suppose it's true the local cops wouldn't track you from day to day. so technically you could "be going to a club event" everyday and be completely legal?

I think historic plates here in MO you are supposed to log your miles. But if your odometer accidentally got unhooked then what

Sure, unless you really pissed off local law enforcement who is going to bother? Here is exactly how it reads...

"Permitted use shall be limited to participation in club activities, exhibits, tours, parades, occasional transportation and similar uses. Occasional transportation and similar uses are defined as one day a week."

...so you have lots to choose from.

I drove my '85 720 "Super Truck" constantly with a classic tag. I even hauled shit in it, which for some reason is specifically not allowed, but I never got hassled.
