You say there are states which have reciprocity (FF&C) laws but are asking
us about ones we know of? 

Which state do you know of that has this? I've checked CA and UT and can't
seem to find a straight answer on it.

Brien and all,

There's very little standardization between and among the states on this.
Many offer "full faith and credit" (and reciprocity) to "foreign"
registration and licensure until the out-of-state registration or license
expire; my state requires re-registration in-state within 30 days of
"establishing residence" here.  As a student, I drove around in Tennessee
for three years with my Oregon driver's license and plates, but once I got
caught, I got hit with a court order (but they waived the fine).  It's often
all about the revenue.

I don't know the actual laws here in UT where I Just moved but I'm just
going to do it. I was able to keep my original black and yellow plates so
those will not be removed! Although I still own a home in San Diego and plan
to use that address as my registration. 

I don't know what the laws are here in Utah about keeping the CA plates. The
fact that I'm a student of sorts will also help because I plan on keeping my
CA DL as well.

Volks,

My state (Tennessee) has changed the law regarding antique-car license
plates.  It's a step in the right direction.  They allow any antique (25+
year old) car to display old license plates from "about" the date of
manufacture or original use of the car, and permit the driver to keep the
current-issued Antique Vehicle tag inside the car, like, under the seat.
But there's a minor catch:

The law here does not allow old out-of-state license plates, or foreign
tags.  Do any of you live in states that DO permit displaying (only) foreign
or out-of-state license plates?  I'd like to get our state law changed to
permit that, and I'd like to find a suitable model statute to propose here.
