Depends on how your car is already registered?

It is currently titled as a 1966..."1966 ERA 427" VIN: 677
I live in Illinois, and I have no knowledge of Mass. procedures.
Thanks for any help.

Should be a straight transfer. Except that VIN number is a flag.

Thanks...I know it's a weird VIN...just the Serial Number of the car. The State titled the car that way, and State Farm gave me no problems when I insured it.

Contact the MASS DMV office and ask for the "Kit Car Package", follow the rules to the letter and you'll be just fine. Quite a bit has changed in MASS since 2013 when this thread petered out, so perhaps starting a new build thread would be a better idea. Also, Bob at ERA can probably guide you on the title/registration process in MASS, as he is quite knowledgeable on the subject.

You will be hunting for an old car that qualifies with a large enough engine to crush as a carbon trade for that 427. The process is outlined in detail online if you search a bit.
It's a MASSive procedure but can be done if you follow the steps. |
