Ray, what sort of restrictions come with those $10 tags?  We have $50 lifetime classic car tags in Idaho, but I cannot use them on my cars because I drive all three of them frequently, including to and from the office.  

Our tags require that the cars be driven only to and from car shows and similar events, or in parades.

Ted, I don't know what you do with your time, but you might start 
working against your counties high assessment.
Send some of this "rant" to your papers letters section, hell, send it 
to every paper in the state. Easy to do, get their email address from 
the internet and hit send.
Talk to some of the local clubs and organize or help to get them as one 
big voice against it.
Challenge the assessment in Court  or threaten to. Where are the values 
coming from? How are they arrived at? Who is certified to do this?
My state (Arkansas) has Antique Car Tags for a one time fee of $10, 
Petition your Reps for this.
You might not be able to afford to work on your car, but all this is 
free to do.
Regards and Good Luck, Ray
