Let’s face it: Classic cars are cool. Nothing turns heads quite like a pristine American classic, or an antique that makes you think, “How is that thing still running and looking brand new?”
According to the Registry of Motor Vehicles, if you want to apply for an antique license plate, an “antique motor car” is any motor vehicle over 25byears old maintained solely for use in exhibitions, club activities, parades, and other functions of public interest.
The Classic Car Club of America says that “antique” is a general description of any car that is 25 years old or more, and that all “Full Classics” are antiques, but not all antiques are “Full Classics” as defined by the club (which are only specific important marques built largely between 1925 and 1948).
