Thread: Thinking about buying a HotRod in NJ

Tweet

Guys,

Bill S. lived in New Jersey, and knows the rules there from top to bottom. I am confident that he gave correct advice for registering the car 66vette originally inquired about in NJ.

However, we all understand that very few people keep cars forever. If he ever tries to sell this car outside the state of New Jersey, it may be really difficult - perhaps impossible. Finally, it is my opinion that the car in question MAY be improperly registered in Wisconsin, as it exactly fits the category of "Replica Vehicle" as defined in WI Statutes, and no other category.

I'm not saying buy or don't buy, or it won't transfer to NJ - just adding info and saying "buyer beware."

Yes, I have lived in NJ and do know the process for kit cars, hot rods, and scratch builds for the state of NJ inside and out. A few other states as well.....The OP is in NJ, and NJ is the advice I have given. Other states (I know most but not all multi state registrations that deal with kit cars) are similar in nature, many however are not. Many states are working on adopting the SEMA rules and regulations when it comes to kit cars and hot rods, and it takes a lot of enthusiasts writing to their DMV/MVS legislative bodies to make that happen.
