Not Ranked
I live in Michigan and have historical plates on two of my eligible cars. I don’t drive these cars for daily transport, but I certainly drive them on weekends and tours and such. And have never had a problem. I even shipped the XK120 to England for a 70th anniversary driving event there with no license or registration problems. I like the historical registration because it avoids the annual renewal hassle. The Cobra is on “normal” plates because of the vanity “64 Cobra” label that I don’t want to lose.
A story - I have an acquaintance with a street rod who painted his historical plate to match his car, got ticketed by the police, then got in a shouting match at the license bureau claiming they had told him it would be OK. This did not end well....
