Registering an out of state Cobra?
In the prossess of purchacing a '96 Superformance that is registered in FL. It has a new '04 Ford crate 351 engine. It is vintage correct visually for a '66 Cobra (no side markers, no cats, unshielded side pipes, no back up lights, no center mount brake lights, OBDII, air bags! and so on) but it is of cource a replica. As it is street driven and properly registered/titled in FL, how big are the 'hoops' the CT DMV will have me jump through to title and register it here? I've read that NJ has an excemption from emissions if you register a car as a 'collectable' and drive it no more than 1,500 miles a year. Can't get a clear answer from CT on that subject. My driveway is short so I want to drive it on our tax funded highways. I know I will survive the CT registration/emission nightmare but any pointers to make the transition smoother would be helpful to me and any others bringing pre-registered out of state cars into CT. Thanks in advance.
