    I used to live on OP KS. The guy (now retired) that helped implement the Kansas rules was a real jerk, and his handiwork lives on after him.

    I had a friend with a T-bucket (completed car) that had a valid title in Missouri. He never could register it because it would have to be converted to a home-built, subject to the same receipt bullbleep.

    Is this a pre-49 car that is being altered/modified? If so, you may be able to get by with the street rod affidavit and a bill of sale from the current owner . . . and maybe not.

    I don't know what to tell you, other than to go talk to the inspector and talk to one. Tell him/her the situation and see what they say. Kansas is one of the tougher places to do this.

    Jack,
    You & I have traded some messages on this before, and I did visit with a lady (female - not commenting on her character) inspector at the station - she's the one that told me I would need receipts and/or OEM certificates for anything and everything down to the bulbs in the lights. I have not been back on this specific vehicle, only talked generalities about a scratch builts with them. This one is a '33 with the frame & glass body built a guy down south as much as 8 or 9 years ago, sold to the current owner at a swap meet about 2001. The current Owner has been adding to it since, to the point that it is probably 90+ percent complete - I have only talked to him, and have not yet seen the project. When I asked about receipts, OEM certs, and ties to salvage titles the response was "...none of that stuff."

    I think it is best for me to pass, regardless how good the deal may seem, and start from scratch, or from something already titled - and ideally in KS. Thanks for the help, again.
