What am I looking at here?? Buying Advice

Get a side shot-especially the door cut out area, the trunk lid and the inside of the trunk area
Almost every fiberglass Cobra kit is that color with a few exceptions of CR's which some where white.

Wheel tubs, moulded into the front, back ones seperate for later installation? Make sure above anything and everything the kit has the CMOS with it! Without it registration is almost impossible to title and might as well be a flower pot! Side marker lights ??? Hood scoop is also very much like many manufacturers. FFR-"?"

Will do.

CMOS?? I'm assuming some sort of certificate for the DMV? I was told with a bill of sale that it would be enough? Is this not the case? That's what the BMV told me? Maybe they thought I was referring to the motor/trans/rear?

So just got off the phone with the guy, and he has the title for the mustang, but does not have anything for the kit car. He said that in MI (where he is) it is not nescesary.

I found the following excerp from the ohio dmv website.

IV.
Documentation required for self-assembled inspections:

1. Titles, receipts, and documentation of the source for the replaced major component parts, which includes the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of the source vehicle. If receipts are from a casual sale from an individual, they must be notarized. Photocopies of receipts are not acceptable.

2. The inspecting officer may require receipts or documentation for any part of questionable origin (Ohio Revised Code, Section 4505.11).

3. When "kits" are used, the manufacturer's certificate of origin must be presented.

4. A receipt for the $50 inspection fee.


AKA number 3 has me concerned. Is there any way around this issue? Or is the car the "flower pot"?

Every state is different. Do your home work first. Make sure you have the proper paperwork. Here's an example of a CMOS.
