Washington requires front plates... for cars and trucks that have 'regular' registration.

The collector plates are different though.
The state only gives you one... and it is for the rear.
So, the Mustang, E23 and E9 have just the rear plates installed - fully legally.

Oh - One more thing. There is a one time only $40 registration fee for these cars.
While the (no) front plate is nice, not having recurring registration costs every year is a huge bonus (in my mind).
