The New Hampshire House of Representatives approved a bill to expand the range of vehicles eligible to use original year-of-manufacture license plates on antique motor vehicles.

A bill to expand the range of vehicles eligible to use original year-of-manufacture license plates on antique motor vehicles was approved by the New Hampshire House of Representatives and will now be considered by the Senate Transportation Committee. Currently, only ’60 and earlier model-year antique vehicles are eligible to use these plates. Under the bill, eligibility would be expanded to include all ’75 and earlier model years.

In New Hampshire, an antique motor vehicle or motorcycle is “any motor vehicle more than 25 years old, which is maintained for use in exhibitions, club activities, parades and other functions of public interest.”
