Thanx Robin, already on the hunt 4 the next 1

Looks amazing Don. Being a new car will you register it and get the plates or does the new owner do that as I think every state have their own licensing rules and plates ? Just how does it work over there ?

Mark, It is Titled, registered and insured here in Oklahoma as a 1933 Ford Victoria not a kit car or specially constructed. Title will transfer in any state or country with out any problems

That won't happen in Mass., it will have to be inspected and if it doesn't have an Original Ford frame, it will get re-titled as an assembled vehicle. And then be subject to all the new regulations.

Real Nice Job, Mr. Don, how's it powered?

Thanks Don for the reply as I have often wondered how difficult it was to purchase cars from across states. Obviously there is still some Eastern States that make things a bit more difficult.

Don't open mouth and insert foot 34-40 It has a original vin on it and it will pass. Just sold a 33 Glass Willys to a guy in Boston with the same paperwork and he had no problem.
Ok insert foot now.

Nope, no foot! I never said the one didn't have an original frame! And like CA., when he goes for his inspection sticker (safety) they'll compare and if it isn't right, they'll snag him.. unless he has a friend who has an inspection station.

I just watched a 2011 Shelby get snagged 'cause the owner put a chip in it, the OBD 2 shows it as non original, and that's against the emmision laws! Car gets impounded and you have to go to court to get it back! Heavy fines and do it more than once, jail time.. EPA doesn't like you messin' with their laws! And Mass wants the dollars from the fines ! Come over here and ask all the Model A club members who can't register their restored cars with non- original frames!

I live here and for every guy who gets through the cracks theres 10 who are stuck! You want some ketchup for your boots!?!?!

First of all I hate Ketchup, and I guess you know all.
Read the Polk book on vehicle registration (all 1100+ pages) it's the guide that all states go by. I've had to teach a few DMV office wizards an few things over the years from the research I did years ago, and it is still the federal Guidelines for vehicle registration in the U S for ALL states.

That's funny.. I figured I'm just a mirror, right back at ya!

I registered mine here 2 years ago.. I jumped through all the hurdles they put me through.. maybe you should teach'em about this book! It only sets the minimum! States can all have stricter laws than federal. But i'm certain you already knew that.

The car turned out great. Nice turn around time too sir!

Don,

You have probably done more vehicles than any of us, so I'm not arguing. However, I've registered street rods in Nebraska, Virginia and Texas, and helped friends and Illinois and Kansas. I can say from personal experience that all states are not the same. All meet the minimum federal regulations, but most states add little twists of their own. Roger Spears' experience in Kansas was significantly different from mine in Virginia. Texas was different also. I had a friend who had a T-bucket registered in MO as a 23 T with a valid MO title as such. Kansas wouldn't touch it. Your Vicky might slip through in Texas as a '34, but if it ran into the wrong inspector, it would have to be re-titled as ASVE. Been there, done that. Any state that has a close version of the SEMA model law is reasonably easy. Those that don't can be a nightmare.

Ride better than your roadsters? You need a rainstorm blowing sideways at the windows to really enjoy it. I bet it is nice.
