'It depends on the section and the code in question. Everyone construes the 14,000 lb limit to be curb weight not GVW. That's how the tag office does it. However, I'd like to remove that constraint so if you have a 1945 civilian Autocar, you can tag it as a historic/antique vehicle.

We've had tracked vehicles before. Other states allow halftracks with rubber band tracks. Frankly, I'm sure the halftrack guys would LOVE to be able to run their trucks down the road on occasion. If only to have some fun.
Tracked vehicles don't in fact cause damage to the if they have rubber...
Note, the Historic Military license plate has NO limiting age. You get your hands on a prototype FMTV or one you rebuild, and it looks reasonably well (reasonably construed). The historic condition bit is to separate the historic MVs from the others. A jeep painted up in pink isn't going to be...

A thought to add a bit of weight to the bill's passage, would a $15 fee taken up for the MV historic plate be a good idea? Add that to a State Veterans fund or some such?
Anyone have a good idea as to it's direction?

I'll probably show to the GaMVPA meeting.
I will be looking at working up a bill over the next few weeks. We can sit down and dissect it on the forum and then we'll need to start pestering our various state senators and representatives to get the bill pushed through.
The hood numbers is tough. It requires technical changes to the DMV database that costs money. The key thing with this is to cost the state nothing more for the effect of the bill.
This is a spin off of the Court Battle In DeKalb posting.
