How To Title This Car

[TSNOID]

OK, I need some advice on this one. I am trying to get a title for a 1991 Classic Motor Car kit car that languished unfinished until last year. I bought the car ,finished in December 2006,from the fellow who finished it.He had bought it from the original purchaser. There is no VIN # on the car as apparently there is a plate that the manufacturer provides and it was never attached to the car and has been subsequently lost.I do not have a MSO.The motor is from a Mustang that is still on the road so I cannot use that #.As Connecticuts new emission standards require emission testing for composite cars starting in 2007 ,I would like to tile the car as the year that the replica resembles, a 1965 Ford Cobra or Ford 2 door coupe.Does any one have any good suggestions so that I may enjoy this life long dream car of mine? I can be emailed directly at TSNOID@AOL.COM Thanks all ! Tony T

I would suggest you ask the CT Dept. of Motor Vehicles or what ever they call it and ask them for the proper procedure. Might save you some headaches later.

I did contact the Connecticut DMV,and they were of no help whatsoever.They say that there is nothing you can do without a vin or mso. That is ridiculous,I cannot be the only person in this situation. Thanks.

Check the growing thread on CT titling/registration here to get the details. You should be able to handle it as a home built vehicle. Your situation takes a difficult task and quadruples it ... engine will need a bill of sale too since it is out of a running vehicle etc.
