Sec. 3-804.
Antique vehicles.
(a) The owner of an antique vehicle may register such vehicle for a fee not
to exceed $13 for a 2-year antique plate. The application for
registration must be accompanied by an affirmation of
the owner that such vehicle will be driven on the highway only for the purpose
of going to and returning from an antique auto show or an exhibition, or
for servicing or demonstration and also affirming that the mechanical
condition, physical condition, brakes, lights, glass and appearance of such
vehicle is the same or as safe as originally equipped. The Secretary may,
in his discretion prescribe that antique vehicle plates be issued for a
definite or an indefinite term, such term to correspond to the term of
registration plates issued generally, as provided in Section 3-414.1. In no
event may the registration fee for antique vehicles exceed $6 per
registration year. Any person requesting antique plates under this Section
may also apply to have vanity or personalized plates as provided under
Section 3-405.1.
(b) Any person who is the registered owner of an antique vehicle may
display a historical license plate from or representing the model year of
the vehicle, furnished by such person, in lieu of the current and valid
Illinois antique vehicle plates issued thereto, provided that valid and
current Illinois antique vehicle plates and registration card issued to
such antique vehicle are simultaneously carried within such vehicle and are
available for inspection.
