You may register authentic historical license plates from the model year of the vehicle up to 1989.  New legislation was passed in 2018 changing the date range from 1970 to 1989.

Registration must be completed in person at your local county tag office.  To register: 

• Bring the authentic historical license plate and a completed form T-224 Authentic Historical License Plate Affidavit of Ownership to your local county tag office who will issue a current license plate and registration
• The current license plate and registration must be kept in the vehicle at all times but need not be displayed.
• Place the authentic license plate in the license plate holder on the back of the vehicle.
