Last fall when I went to get a title for mine I was told by the DMV that they would not accept a title application that was done by TU. I had to title mine as a 2002. However, good ol' North Carolina doesn't require street rods and "specials" to pass smog laws so it really wasn't an issue. The problem with the taxes is, the state is usually the one that sets the value on the car. The book value of a '65 ford just isn't real high. But if they checked the real value of a real '65 cobra, say quarter mil, and taxed the cars that way there wouldn't be a problem with anyone wanting to title reproductions as a '65. Maybe everyone should work to get hot rods and "specials" exempted from the smog laws, that's all we want anyway isn't it? We can't say that Double Venom hasn't been warning us about this potential problem.
