help with OHIO Cobra registration

[joyridin']

If the car has a newer title, meaning the car isn't listed as a 1965 Cobra, it is a piece of cake. He buys the car and brings it to Ohio. He needs to take it toa facility (most dealerships) and they verify the vin matches the title. Then the title is transferred. You MUST notarize the title out of your name by a notary or he will have a problem.

For plates, he just needs to apply for Collectors Plates. That allows him to bypass all emissions testing. The SB100 means nothing here. Collectors plates are purchased each year like regular plates from the BMV.

If it is titled as a 1965, i think he will have issues.

One last thing. As long as you do not get ridiculous, nobody really knows what he paid for the car. He will have to pay sales tax on the car. In my county, it is 8%, plus other fees. So if he paid you $50,000 for the car and you forgot the last zero, it would probably make his life easier. I am not advocating cheating the state out of sales tax, but accidents do happen.

One thing I forgot to mention. I live in a county that requires emission testing. If you live in a county that does not, you can probably have the car registered with regular plates without a problem.
