if you can get old plates that are the year of your vehicle, you take them to the dmv and they check them out make sure they in good condition and put the number in their computer and those are your new plates forever. plus its a cool nostalgia item. ya know? i dont know what year you can start doing this but ive seen them on all kinds of old cars

Same here you can use them like vintage plates, weekends only or full time use. I got a 69 plate for mine for $10.
