25 years old minimum here. Very restricted driving. Plates are permanent and insurance is cheap, also no property taxes, but if you drive it even close to regularly you will most likely be ticketed. I will probably get antique plates for my 71 CB350, but it has 5700 miles on it at 40 years age. 1000 last year. Many cops here are watching antique plate drivers very carefully. The only allowed driving that is not to a show or a repair shop, is to "exercise" the vehicle. Obviously very few miles expected.
Virginia also allows owners to not have to go through state inspections, but also requires owners to sign a document where they promise their vehicle is in the proper condition to pass the state inspections that were required when the vehicle was new.
This means in many cases they do not have to have seat belts, turn signals, or other things you would expect on a modern car, but those things were either optional or not available when the car was originally manufactured.
Everyone needs to carefully read their individual state laws concerning antique or other designation older cars.
