Default temporary plates in MA

Just bought a 2002 Z06 in Witman, MA does anyone know if you can get temporary plates or will I have to trailer the car home to Canada? Has anyone delt with McLaughlin Chevy?

Thanks in advance
John

I don't know but you might find an answer on here....

My guess is that you can run a Canadian plate and insurance on it as long as your insurance company is aware of what you're up to.

Thanks for the input guys. I think we found a solution. Ontario will issue us a temp that is suppose to be good enough to get the car across the border.

I live on the MA/NH border so I see the NH temp plates all the time. We bought a subaru in Nashua and the guy was about to slap some temp plates on it until... oh right, sorry. MA resident. No temp plates for you.
