According to the Maryland MVA website, you can obtain Historic plates if: The car is 25 years old or older OR if the manufacturer has gone out of business and the model is no longer being built. This is how I got my plates. Because the average MVA clerk doesn't know their own job, I printed the relevant rules out from the website, then printed out a news article from the web detailing how the DMC plant shut down for the final time and went into receivership. Hope this helps, Rich A. #5335 --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Steve Stankiewicz <protodelorean@xxxx> wrote: > Hi Mike.
