    Florida is a cinch to do a T bucket in....our laws are pretty liberal. No fender, hood, etc laws to trouble you.

    The one thing that can be a problem is getting the initial title. I have never gone the reconstructed route, but my buddy Pete did. He had to provide receipts for every component, especially the big ones (engine, trans, frame, etc)
    Unfortunately, Pete passed away about 5 years ago, so I can't find out what all he had to do beyond that.

    I think some counties have smog tests, but we in Lee County don't so far.

    As I said, I just buy an old clean title and turn my car into that one. So far I have never had a problem doing that. I suspect you will have no trouble, just look at all the cars that are on the road down here like you want to build.

    Good luck,

    Don
