Nicely done! I snagged two consecutive bicentennial 76 PA plates last year online and plan to use one on my 74 Rockford Esprit and the other on my 76 Formula. I also snagged a couple of period correct (for each year car) registration stickers to apply to the plates although I believe one had an original still on it.

You're right about the wad of cash though as the fees pile up quickly. I figure about $300 or so per car.(?)

What's the latest and greatest on the state inspection rules for the classic/antique registrations? If no inspection, there are reproduction inspection stickers available for specific years too.

I've resisted the antique/classic plate switch for some time as I do drive the car quite a bit. I ended up going with Antique which means no inspection required and lifetime registration so the savings will pay off over time. I believe Classic still requires inspection.

With service fees I think it ran me around $260 to switch to the Antique title and register the new (old) plate. The plate I picked up has a T temporary tag but I have been eyeing up a 74 registration decal;

Not sure I can justify $20 for a decal

I figured I would just remove the inspection stickers on the windshield - I hadn't thought of trying to source some reproduction versions of those as well.

Dammit - you planted that seed and I've been checking on eBay ever since. Finally scored a new/unused PA inspection sticker that was listed yesterday.
