Guest Matt M, PA Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) wagonsteve...made no sense to me, either. I called the state who verified that it was a "dead plate" and that it could not be used or "reactivated".

wagonsteve Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Matt, do yourself a favor. hang the dead plate on your wall and get a YOM plate. If yours cars are old enough, up grade them antique, then you won't have worry about inspections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Matt M, PA Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 wagonsteve....I would but the one car is a 1996, so it's only able to go to Classic. The other, a 2000 will be eligible in 2015. They are outside the YOM plate requirements...which is why I wanted to use the white/purple classic plates. Unless something changes in 10 years or so with the YOM plates....I've been saving a few purple antique plates for the future.I do have a 1972 Plymouth with a YOM tag.Since all this started, I was given another tag that came up as "available" in the PA vanity/vintage tool on line. It came up as "available". I went to my local tag service today and did the transfer/title change. We'll see how it pans out. The person I spoke to at PENNDOT told me to use the on-line tool to see if a Classic plate is available. Apparently, if it's out of the system for so many years (I think 10) it can be used....just take the plate to the tag service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest billybird Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Glad to hear it. I hope it passes even though I live in N.C. A victory anywhere is a victory for us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
