<VV> License Plates

[N. Joseph Potts]

I maintain regular insurance on my Corvair, and I DON'T drive it every day.
Every week is more like it, but I NEVER drive it in parades, and very rarely
attend meetings relating to old cars. Ditto for car shows. I drive it for a
reason code that is VERY apt: Pleasure. That's regular insurance.

	I've just about come to the conclusion that historic plates and
insurance is not the way to go for me.  I want to drive and enjoy my
car.  The stipulation that I only use my Monza only for  "club meetings
and activities, parades, and other functions of public interest'' ,
which I would need to conform to in the state of Texas, would leave me
wondering why I went to such considerable trouble and expense to
restore my four door.

	The insurance will allow me only 2000 miles per year.  I plan to drive
between 4-8 thousand per year.   Who could walk by the best car in the
garage and not wish that they could take it for a spin?  Honestly!

	Thanks to everyone who wrote to me with advise about the plates.
