David,

Although it is the law in IL, I have never had a problem with being stopped for no front license plate. I have driven many cars without a front plate. The Cobra and my Noble both are without front plates. When registering the Noble I went out of my way to have a special front bracket constructed just to be used to pass the IL inspection. The inspector checked a number of things but even he had no interest if the car was equiped with a front license plate bracket. I think most cops in the area will let it slide unless the car is doing something else they really don't like. I plan on taking the chance that those cops that care will not find me and if they do I guess I will have a ticket to pay.

And I also agree that the new antique vehicle plate design is not the best. I just got new AV plates for two cars and I wish they were the previous design. It will change again.
