- 16(4), verbatim: "Effective February 1, 1980 upon registration, (a) licence plates bearing the words 'Antique Auto' shall be issued to the owner, or (b) if the owner produces Yukon licence plates that were issued during the year of manufacture of that antique motor vehicle that are in a condition satisfactory to the registrar, the registrar may approve the use of such plates." The (b) branch is the Alberta s. 65(2) rule again and carries the same consequence: a Yukon-registered antique may lawfully wear a decades-old plate as its LIVE registration. s. 16(3)(c): "Registration shall be valid for as long as the vehicle is in existence and further renewal of registration shall not be required", a non-expiring registration, as in British Columbia's Division 22. s. 16(5) confines operation to daylight unless the vehicle has conforming lights. Fee $25 (s. 16(4)(c)).
