That's the nice thing about a State with a Republican Government. In Arkansas at the tag office:

Can I register it as a 60s Cobra Replica - Sure thing - no problem.

In that case can I tag it as an Antique Car - Sure thing - no problem.

Do I need to pay tax on the purchase cost - No, we'll register it as a "no sale transaction". I need $12.75 from you for the tag fee.

Thought I had died and ended up in Heaven.

They did get me on annual vehicle property tax but I went down this year and pointed out that they have been charging me the same tax every year - it is a replica so it's not worth what I spent to build it - isn't there some way to depreciate it. Response - Oh my, that is high. Yes, we can start depreciating that value every year for you. Let me take care of it.
