<VV> Corvairs with 'Antique' plates

[shortle]

My 3 driving Corvairs all have antique plates from Colorado. The neat thing with them is they are tagged for 5 years. As far as insurance, I am with Haggerty and their restrictions are that these cars are not my primary vehicles. But I believe it's on the "honor system" as far as where I take them. But I only drive them for recreation anyway.
