Interesting. One step beyond the Antique Plates unless it is over 25 years and original condition. This is cool and new to me.
Applying for collector plates
Have a beautiful collector or limited-edition collector vehicle that you just drive occasionally? You might want to apply for collector plates. Collector plates may be used on cars, light trucks and motorcycles.
[-] Minimum age for collector vehicles
To qualify, your vehicle must be
- at least 25 years old, or
- at least 15 years old and of no more than 1,500 of that make and model (not edition) produced worldwide by the manufacturer for that model year
- at least 15 years old, where the manufacturer that own the "trademark" or "make" of that vehicle has ceased manufacturing vehicles of any kind for at least the last five years, or
- registered as a 1948 or earlier model with a vehicle status of "altered" (has had one or more major components replaced).
[-] Collectable condition of your vehicle
Your vehicle must be
- in exceedingly good condition (for example, no dents, scratches, rust, chips in the paint, visible primer, tears in the interior);
- in a condition that conforms to the original manufacturer's specifications (no non-approved parts and accessories added); and
- maintained in the same condition when originally approved for collector plates.
