ANybody in NC registered as an antique? The language of the law says "use in exhibitions, club activities, parades"
and "It is used only occasionally for other purposes"
Would a few trips per year count as "occasional use"? I assume they are just trying to prevent a guy from using a 76 Corona as a daily driver and never having it inspected.
The big plus for me is it removes the hassle of having to make the parking brake work.
