Stop in for a cup of coffee

OK...so a poll here...

Had a great conversation with the Sheriff's Office today about the Valiant and registration/taxes (WV has personal property tax...pretty low rate but it's still there)

Recommendation was that instead of going with the original 1964 plates and registering the car as a classic, I should just get a standard registration on it as the tax rate is 30% HIGHER on classic cars....

She also recommended a garage that will actually look at a pre-1972 car.

Thoughts?

WV is a rear plate only state so I could still put the original 64 plate on the front...maybe do a vanity plate on the back....
I would go with a standard plate.
