I Love Maryland...No Really!
Created on 2007-12-21 15:36:24
We moved to Maryland in July and when I looked into registering Nemo I found out that the "Historic" car rules were written with a very broad brush. Not only does the car NEVER have to be inspected or emission tested but while he can not be a daily driver he can "be used for occasional transportation". Then I found out that if you have vintage tags (same year as your historic vehicle) you can use them as vanity tags and keep the historic tags in the car! It took me about 6 weeks on eBay to find the 1972 Maryland tags in good condition. So Nemo is now displaying 1971 Maryland tags with a 1972 registration sticker. Can't wait to see what happens when I drive in neighboring states 8-)
