How does MY DMV know what year my car was produced? There is not one thing anywhere that shows when my car was given birth. I don't have a MSO, I don't have any receipts from the original owner, and my vin has 14 characters (old style). Hell, the only one that knows that info. is Peter P. at ERA and the original owner! I don't even know it for that matter. Your going to tell me they will go back and investigate why my car that has had three owners, two different states, reverse the history of 16 years of it's life, and call me a Fraudulent person.
All of this because I just want to register a car I bought and want to drive in any given state? I might be wrong but I believe the majority of the folks that got in trouble in Ca. were the ones building "new" cars and wanting to register there "new" car as a 65 to get around having to pay exorbitant taxes. The taxes on new $75K Corvette are A LOT more than a 65 Cobra (titled kit car) with the same costs to build or bought. Correct?
All I know is here in Georgia, if I were to start over with a new ERA Cobra (or any Cobra) they don't except these types of cars anymore. Period! As of my last checking, they are under investigation by the state on which way they should proceed and are on "hold" till the legislature decides what to do. If I wanted to build a CAV GT40, I'm screwed unless I can put a smog motor in that car and it can pass 2010 emissions. It's partly because I live in the metro counties that fall under the emissions but also the title and registration would be a 2010 (like it should). BUT, if I bought one from another state as a 65 and brought it in I would be fine. But your saying I would be fraudulent to try and do so, mmm. I'm not trying to start a pissing match but I must have been living the last 7 years as a lie and didn't know it!
