Please consider sending an email in support of this bill to the representatives listed below. I just got this email today from SEMA and the hearing is on Wednesday so we need to act quickly. This would allow us to title the roadsters as "1965".
Pro-Hobbyist Street Rod and Custom Vehicle Bill Reintroduced in Ohio; Committee Hearing Scheduled for Wed., Oct. 7
SEMA model legislation (H.B. 199) that would create a vehicle registration and titling classification for street rods and custom vehicles and provide for special license plates for these vehicles will be considered by the Ohio House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee on Wednesday, October 7th. H.B. 199 defines a street rod as an altered vehicle manufactured before 1949 and a custom as an altered vehicle at least 25 years old and manufactured after 1948. The bill allows kit cars and replica vehicles to be assigned a certificate of title bearing the same model year designation that the body of the vehicle was constructed to resemble.
We Urge You to Contact All Members of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee (List Attached Below) Immediately to Request Their Support for H.B. 199
For those interested in attending the hearing to voice opposition, the committee will meet on Wed., Oct. 7 at the following address and time:
State House
1 Capitol Square, Room 017
Columbus, Ohio
10:30 AM
· H.B. 199 provides specific registration/titling classes and license plates for street rods and customs.
· H.B. 199 includes street rods and customs (including replicas) in the historical motor vehicle definition for the purpose of holding these vehicles only to the equipment standards specified by law during the model year listed on the title of the vehicle.
H.B. 199 provides that a replica vehicle can be assigned the same model year designation as the production vehicle it was constructed to resemble.
· H.B. 199 permits street rods and custom vehicles to display blue dot taillights.
