Iowa HAMBrs please read!!!

Didn't want to link to another hot rod site, so I did some "copy and paste" magic. Still important, though.

At the end is a link to the actual bill.


Iowa Introduces Bill to Expand Use of Antique Vehicles

Legislation (S.F. 91) that would amend the state’s current law governing antique motor vehicles to permit their occasional use for up to 1,000 miles per year has been introduced in the Iowa Senate. Under current Iowa, use of antique vehicles is strictly limited to exhibitions or educational purposes.

We Urge You to Contact Members of the Senate (List Below) in Support of S.F. 91

S.F. 91 will provide Iowa citizens the opportunity to enjoy occasional recreational driving in addition to the other sanctioned uses.


S.F. 91 provides added incentive to owners of qualifying antique vehicles (25-years old or older) to register as “antique” thereby reducing registration fees. Antique vehicles are only required to pay a $5 annual registration fee and may display model year registration plates.
DON’T DELAY! Please contact members of the Iowa Senate Transportation Committee immediately by phone or e-mail to request their support of S.F. 91.
Please e-mail a copy of your letter to stevem@sema.org. Thank you for your assistance.

Five bucks a year, eh? Nebraska already has a law similar to that except you pay a one-time fee and can run your YOM [year of manufacture] plates at no annual fee. Just pay a one time fee of about 70 bucks and show proof of insurance ..you're good for life.

 

shhhhhhh. I'm a lot better now than I used to be.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

Mail is on its way, and I've passed along the link to some guys at the Brit Car Club too.

Thanks Monkeyboy!

 

My heart skipped a beat when I first saw this post. Thought it was gonna be one about some screwed up bill by some misguided politicians. What a pleasant surprise that it's actually a step forward. Thanks for the info Cyrus.
