registration class that would allow an  tique vehicles and replicas to be
driven without limitation during the warmer part of the year (April 1 through
October 31) was signed into law by Governor Pat Quinn.  Under the new law,
expanded-use antiques are limited to traveling to and from car shows,
exhibitions, servicing or demonstration during the colder months (November 1
through March 31).  Regular antique vehicle registration is still available
for a lower fee to hobbyists who would prefer only operating their vehicle on
a limited-use basis throughout the year.  The law becomes effective on Jan. 1,
2012.

fee of $45.  The limited-use antique plate (travel to and from car shows,
exhibitions, for servicing or demonstration) remains available at a fee of $13
for a two-year registration.  A standard registration plate, with no use
limitations, is available for an annual $98 registration fee.  In Illinois, an
antique vehicle is defined as a motor vehicle that is more than 25 years of
age, a bonafide replica or a fire-fighting vehicle more than 20 years old
which is not used as fire-fighting equipment.
