That's the person who told me to use the Application for Certificate of Ownership form from the Glider Kit and send all the paperwork to the 225 E State St address. Then I would get a Title for the car which I could take to a regular facility, like Turnersville, to get my Registration and Tags. There was no mention of a Special Inspection!
As far as going to Asbury Park, I live in Gloucester County, and that seems a bit far.

You can certainly try it, but I'll be honest, I've never heard of a "glider kit form", or, you could call back and specifically ask for the "kit car package", nothing else, just the "kit car package" as your verbiage within your initial conversation may have been a factor in the response you initially received. As for specialty inspection stations Westfield, Asbury Park, or Winslow are your only choices in NJ as Morristown never reopened after Hurricane Sandy buried them under 11 feet of water.
Your car, your choices, all I can do is guide you as to what has been successful for dozens of others who have asked for my assistance.

The term "glider kit" is a truck expression. It is not a Cobra replica expression. A truck glider kit is a new, incomplete truck chassis sold without a power train. You do that so that you can pair it with a remanufactured power train from an existing, often older, truck, allowing for a new or updated truck with the benefits of both. You're recycling and helping save the planet. It's kind of, but not really, like a Cobra "roller." Click here for a very nice explanation on the beauty of "glider kits":
