<VV> Corvairs with 'Antique' plates

[Carlton Smith]

When I bought my 65 Corsa in 2007. I went through the same procedure as Ed.
Got the VIN from the seller and called my agent for a temp insurance policy.
Flew in to Wichita, KS and looked at the car. I had a bill of sale already
prepared for the seller to sign with all of the important information on it.
The seller took his plate off the car. I drove it directly to the nearest
DMV 15 miles away (that is what the KS DMV told me to do as long as I had
the bill of sale with me), they issued a temp paper plate and I drove it all
the way back to Indianapolis (with the top down). No hassles. I went to the
Indiana DMV with the paper work, flagged down a State Policeman who was in
the parking lot, he inspected the car and that was it.

All I will say about this discussion is that I did the homework with both
the KS DMV and the IN DMV before I left to go see the car. So I knew what to
be prepared for and was.

A couple of years ago I went with a friend to buy a car in VA. My friend
lives in NY. He got temp insurance from his ins company and we went to look
at the car. He decided to buy it. We got the title and went to the local VA
DMV and got a temp paper plate to put in the back window. The DMV clerk had
some formula to figure out how long to make the plates valid depending on
where we were going. The clerk decided three days were enough.

I was impressed that VA had a reasonable policy in place.
