Sometimes you have to be very persistent.  Not the same problem, but when I wanted to register my 56 Triumph TR3 using plates that had been assigned to it in 1963; I wound up having to print out the relevant section of the vehicle code and show it to the clerk and her supervisor at the DMV.  Even then they refused to approve my application on the spot, but they did agree to send it to state headquarters in Sacramento, who approved it a few weeks later.
