The 25-year line is the NHTSA age exemption for a vehicle not built to the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (49 CFR 591.5(i)), counted from the date of manufacture. The 21-year line is the EPA exemption on Form 3520-1, counted by calendar year and limited to a car in its original configuration.
Eligibility is decided by the specific car’s build date on its plate, not by the chassis code and not by the model year. Two cars of the same code can sit on different sides of the line.
The form opens the eligibility check with this code filled in. General information, not legal advice.
