SEMA is supporting Iowa legislation to allow any antique motor vehicle to be registered as a “limited-use” antique vehicle for an annual fee of $5. The bill adds “other occasional use” to the purposes for which a limited-use antique vehicle may be driven.

"Other occasional use" is defined as driven not more than 1,000 miles annually. Iowa law defines an "antique motor vehicle" to mean any motor vehicle 25 years old or older.

Iowa law currently only allows an antique motor truck, truck tractor, road tractor or motor home that is used exclusively for exhibition or educational purposes to apply for a limited-use, two-year registration for a fee of $70. In addition to 1,000 miles annual use, the bill would allow all antique vehicles registered for limited use to be driven to and from state and county fairs (or other places of entertainment or education) for exhibition or educational purposes; to and from service stations for the purpose of receiving necessary maintenance; and for the purposes of transporting, testing, demonstrating or selling the vehicle.

Entry forms and information are now available online at the Top Shop Awards website, www.tirereviewtopshopaward.com. Complete entries can be made right online, and entries will be accepted until midnight on June 28, 2010.

The Tire Review Top Shop Award contest spotlights independent tire dealers that epitomize the attributes and values stressed in every issue of Tire Review: exemplary customer service and retention; training and education; merchandising and promotion; professional standards and conduct; appearance; solid business management; community involvement; growth; and achievement.

Dealers can nominate their own businesses, or others can nominate tire dealer businesses. The entry process is simple: Those making the nomination need to provide basic information about the dealership being nominated and write a short (300-word maximum) essay explaining why that dealership should be considered.

Magazine staff will review all entrants and select a group of semi-finalists who will be asked to provide additional information for judging. A panel of judges, including industry professionals and a member of the Tire Review staff, will select the four finalists and, ultimately, the 2010 Top Shop Award winner.

The grand prize winner will receive a Coats ProGuard Leverless Tire Changer, $1,500 in cash and airfare/hotel for two (two nights/three days) to the 2010 SEMA Show. Tire Review will also feature the Top Shop in its October 2010 issue and send a Top Shop trophy for display in their dealership.
