I live in British Columbia and have 'collector' plates on my
'68 Montego. There's no advantage to them except the insurance
costs $125 a year rather than upwards of $500, and the only
use limitation is that I'm not allowed to drive it to work. I
may keep my collector plates as long as I have another vehicle
registered with regular plates presumably for routine transport...

Last Summer I parked my 'regular' car in the garage where the
Mercury's usually parked and made a 7500 mile road trip...
