Yea for old cars! Do you have antique tags on it? If you do, you will never have to get it inspected again, but there is a limit on number of miles per year (but it sounds as if your car may impose that limit on its own, kinda like my beloved old Saab).

Somethings are meant to be preserved and some weren't. I'm pretty K-cars are in that second category.

Yes, getting antique plates for her and picking her up today. It's a 1983 Dodge 600 sedan. Very rare car (not in its day, but it is now). It's the only one registered with the K-Car Club. This is off-topic, but here's my baby:

And that attitude is exactly why I have one of very few left. Which makes it super cool. :P The things that aren't meant to be preserved are usually the things that don't survive, which makes them the most fun to find.

That is pretty amazingly preserved, I'm impressed. Not too happy that a car that came out when I was in college could be an antique but I'll probably have to get used to that.
