Here in Connecticut, Antique plates, called "Early American" even on our
LBC's only require that the car be more than 25 years old. As I drive my
'66 MGB to & from work, I see a '57 Ford 2-door wagon, a mid-60's Dodge &
park near a '67 Volvo that wear EA plates & are driven every day. There are
no restrictions.
What does the EA plate do for us? Our towns levy a personal property tax on
automobiles, boats, etc. here in CT. EA plates limit the assessed valuation
on cars to $500 for tax purposes. So, it saves me about $100 a year.
