I've just recently go-karted mine, I would like to go ahead and title/tag it for short drives to de-bug it, while still having the body off for paint prep.

He said to send in all pertinent paperwork (MCO/MSO, receipts, plus a OK tax comm form, etc) to OKC, they would process it in 2-3 wks, and send me back an "instruction packet" that I would then take to a tag agent.

"Do yall register it as, 1965 or 2010, new or used. Make, would it be Backdraft and model be Cobra, or did yall go with Shelby cobra."

I asked the same questions.......he said it would be titled as "homebuilt/kit". I asked if it would be 2010 or 1965? He said it would say "1965 Cobra replica" after the "homebuilt/kit".

I haven't done it yet, but it sounds like the key is whatever your MSO/MCO from Backdraft says on it. He asked if my FFR MSO/MCO had a VIN on it? I told him that FFR doesn't assign VIN's, only "chassis numbers" during manufacturing. Scott ( in OKC) said if my "chassis #" was acceptable, that they (OKC) might just use it as the OK VIN (my preference), if not, they would assign a VIN (my 2nd choice, as I would probably have to have a plate w/new VIN # made up and attached on frame).

I'm east of Broken Arrow, probably not too far from you. Maybe we can compare notes some time. I'll PM you with my phone # & e-mail.

good luck,
Joe

Joe, I sent you a PM.
