richj Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Anybody out there have a list of regulations for each state as far as the laws that go with an antique truck plate? Seems to be a lot of confusion on this topic and nobody really can find anything in writing?

jaysm35a2 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Good advice, you can always call the DMV. Pretty easy to get the info and regs. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24429-antique-plate-regulations/#findComment-113619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomastractorsvc Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 For Missouri http://dor.mo.gov/motorv/historic.php the biggest thing if you own an antique truck is your not supposed to pull any trailers or use except for show, you cant drive more than 100 miles away for repairs and limited 1000 miles per year. Just as easy to plate it for weight the same as my 1 ton pickup and then I can drive it anywhere and haul my gooseneck trailer. It does require a state safety inspection but so what it only has to meet safety requirements from 1959. Quote Robert"I reject your reality and substitute my own."

We covered alot of ground here, you'll have a much better grasp on PAs regulations If you read through. I gathered alot of good info. from alot of good people. And I got my ducks in order and took the old rig for a ride for the first time a few weeks ago.

JumperAndSon Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 My main concern is hauling stuff. We plan to get a trailer and use the B60 to retrieve other projects we get in the future. If it has an antique plate on it, can we still haul other antique trucks with it. That Fact Sheet for PA says "trucks May Not haul cargo" but I thought that meant they couldn't haul commercial cargo and we could still haul our personal stuff. Am I wrong?Ben Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24429-antique-plate-regulations/#findComment-113716 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure your insurance covers you to pull a trailer. The only antique company I know that covers if you are pulling a trailer is Gulfway. They are more expensive, but you will not be covered if you get in an accident while pulling a trailer under other companies antique policies. My understanding is you are able to haul your own items, but that might not be the cops understatnding if you are pulled over.Mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24429-antique-plate-regulations/#findComment-113719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
