Re: Antique or special registration plate laws in other states

Howard -

You can register any motor vehicle, regardless of age, with regular plates in PA, but they are then subject to the annual state safety inspection (and emission inspection for 1976 and newer cars).

However, registered antiques are also exempted from some modern lighting requirements, provided they are not driven between sunset and sunrise - a plus for some early cars not equipped wih sealbeam headlamps, turn signals, etc.
