In NJ, the year the kit is completed is the year of the title, no matter what the MSO says. It is the way NJ handles kit cars. NJ does not make any distinction between a roller and a kit. With the roller, NJ is happy that the body and frame are from the same place.

In NJ, the year of the motor (in the kit car) dictates what pollution controls must be on the vehicle during the titling engineering inspection. That engine block year will also be the year used when determining sniffer levels at a typical bi-annual inspection.

Without a doubt, NJ just makes things plain difficult.

I hope the abbreviated version cleared this up.
