I have no problems with cars 25yo getting classic/antique/collector plates. Back when muscle cars were aging and started hitting that 25yo mark, most weren't restored beauties. Many were clapped out, spray painted and barely running. You see the same with cars today that are starting to qualify for the same plates.
Should my truck that I use as a truck not qualify for classic plates because it's not rotisserie restored? The truck that I've been paying taxes on for years and years, and now that it qualifies for a tax break, I shouldn't take it? Yeah right.
What about the modern classics, like a Supra, Skyline or RX7? Someone restoring one of them shouldn't have access to a classic plate? We're getting awfully choosy on how we want to apply rules and laws.
