A new twist from NYSMV – in trying to get my car a VIN # I sent all the info to Albany, after a few weeks I called to find out where my paperwork was. I was told that the car I built has legal problems – because I did not buy my FFR kit-car from a dealer but purchased it from an individual who started it then stopped, the nice lady from Field Investigation told me that because the seller is not a dealer the car should not have been sold without it being registered by the original owner. Yes I told her I bought it as a kit in lots of boxes – she said that’s the law.
With all this said she told me that she just went through this with someone else and that she will dig for me and call me in a day or so to find out what can be done, if anything…

Part 2 – this is a good one – a new law was passed as of Jan. 2006 in NYS you (an individual) are allowed to build only one kit car per lifetime and cannot sell it for at least 5 years, unless you are a registered dealer.
How is that for keeping the paperwork down in Albany? I looked on the web for confirmation of the law with no luck. Lots of fun!
