“Dear Popville,
I have inherited my grandmother’s 1965 Ford Mustang. Having not been driven in ~20 years the car is currently being restored. Once complete, I will have it shipped to DC so that I can enjoy it on Spring days like today.
I am begining to nagivate the process of insuring and registering the vehicle and am hoping that the PoPville community may have some insightful tips. It seems that DC allows vehicles to be registered as “historic” which, as a benefit, makes the car exempt from meeting any modern vehicular standards (e.g. exhaust, noise, fuel usage). As a drawback, I would only be able to drive my new/old car 1000 miles/year.
Additionally I am looking at insurance, and I believe the best option is to insure the vehicle as a classic car, which is less expensive and provides better coverage than standard insurance. However, classic car insurance that I have found requires each member of your household to already have a daily driver… so unless I force my bike riding wife out of our house that is a difficult requirement to meet.
Looking for some good pointers from people who have already gone through this.
Side note: Anyone in the H St area have an extra garage spot that they want to rent to a ’65 Mutang… seriously???”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
