Florida: 30 yrs, bring registration that has the yr of car on it to the DMV. Mod'ed or not I guess. They don't look at the car.

Antique Plates
Your vehicle must be at least 30 years old to qualify for antique plate status.

To receive the plates, bring your current registration with you to a county tax collector's office.

Minnesota has a lot of options.

Antique Plates

Minnesota divides this category into four plates: Pioneer, Classic, Collector, and Street Rod. Each one can be applied for by completing an Application for Special Plates.

Pioneer Plates
Any vehicle manufactured before 1936 and retained as a collector's item can display these plates.

Classic Plates
These plates can be displayed on any vehicle manufactured from 1925 to 1948 that's deemed a classic car by the registrar of motor vehicles. The criteria for this designation includes superior workmanship, design, elite engineering standards, and proof the vehicle is only used as a collector's item.

Collector Plates
Any vehicle that's at least 20 model years old and manufactured after 1935 can display these plates, providing you, the owner, also have at least one other vehicle registered in Minnesota.

Street Rod Plates
You qualify for these plates if your vehicle was manufactured before 1949 or was recreated to resemble a vehicle manufactured before 1949. You must also have at least one other vehicle registered in Minnesota.
