This is a disaster, I went to the DMV and filled out a "Application for Collectors Vehicle Status" they had no clue what I was talking about and I argued with them for an hour. They wanted proof of "Collectors Car" insurance from someone like Grundy or Hagarty. I'm only 21 & I don't qualify for any of those companies. (And no, I will not put anything under my parents names to do so.)

Collector vehicles
To be classified as a "collector vehicle" you need to apply when you register and make sure that the vehicle:
Is not registered as a "historic vehicle" or a "street rod"
Is not driven more than 3,000 miles per year (proof available at odometer reading)
Is insured as a limited use "collector vehicle"
To qualify for an exemption:
Visit an MVC Agency to purchase a voucher for a special decal to mark the vehicle exempt from safety and emission inspection; fee is $25 for an initial voucher and $10 to renew
Take the collector vehicle to a State Inspection Station where the inspector will verify the odometer reading

My vehicle is not historic, or a street rod. My car is insured as a limited use car though, is that collectors? This is ridiculous, I'm only trying to legally get around inspection. My car is currently listed as the pleasure car, and my S10 is my primary. I spoke to my insurance rep and he said there shouldn't be any problems with registering my car for limited miles through the DMV. When I was at the DMV they looked at me as if I have three heads. I don't get what I did wrong. I'm on hold right now with the state dmv. I really don't want to go through the hassle of buying a sticker. They are too expensive and I don't feel safe getting them from people I don't know. Plus if I went through this legally I wouldn't have to worry about the numerous things "wrong" with my car if someone wanted to hassle me.
