Albie,
My Backdraft is assessed at the $500 level in New Hartford
. But the reason it is assessed at $500 has nothing to do with the town, It is the fact that I have the Early American registration and plates. If you have standard CT plates then they go on state/DMV value of the vehicle regardless of type.
If they offered you the EA plates without the "Composite" vehicle make, then take them up on it and save yourself the aggravation. The only thing to note here is that for several years they have tried to get the value of EA registered vehicles raised from $500 to $2500, but this is still far better than $20,000.
