There is a form you pick up where you get your tags. It is an application for a title on a reconstructed car. Basically you have to provide receipts for all the parts you used, especially the major components like engine, etc.

You then take the car to the tag office and an officer looks at the car and all of your receipts to make sure it isn't hot, or something else. Then it goes to Tallahassee and they issue a number plate that you afix to the frame.



OR.........................you buy a title at a swap meet or somewhere else, and register your car as that car. They really don't get too excited about this when you are dealing with a 70 year old car.

But the right way to do it is the DMV form. But I think your car has to meet current standards on emissions, steering wheel locks, etc. Could be wrong on that, as I have never gone this route to title any of mine.

By the way, ever since I first saw the Vipers I wanted one. Then I worked as a Production Manager at a local body shop and actually got to drive one. I don't want one any more. It is smaller inside than my '27, and every time I turned around to look out the drivers window to back up, I banged my head on the roof. I was really disappointed.
Maybe old age is catching up with me.
