## About this plate

HISTORIC. New Jersey's rolling 25-year threshold is the same shape as New York's and the opposite of Maryland's fixed 1999 cutoff and Florida's fixed 1945, three states, three different threshold designs, in one research group.

## Who can have one

NJ MVC: 'the vehicle must be at least 25 years old and only used for exhibition and educational purposes', a ROLLING threshold plus a USE restriction. The use restriction is the operative half: New Jersey does not let an eligible vehicle run historic plates as ordinary transport.
