In my state, you'll need either an MSO or a bill of sale for the car/kit itself, and a receipt for the major items in the driveline - engine, tranny, etc.

It will save you $$$ if the receipts show that sales tax has been paid. Otherwise, you'll be paying it again.

We no longer have to demonstrate the safety items - just sign a sheet that lists the code sections and a spot for the owner to certify that it meets all of them. That way, if you're killed in an accident due to a safety item, the state is not liable, since you stated in the form that it meets all requirements and the state never inspected it. Pretty slick, huh?

Iowa adopted the SEMA model language for Street Rods and Replicas. They are titled as replicas, and must meet the requirements of the year car they replicate. So a '32 Highboy is a 1932 Ford Street Rod, a Cobra is a 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica, etc.

It's really all about collecting the fees.........
