Titling an out-of state Cobra in Ohio
I'm looking at buying a Cobra replica from an owner not in Ohio. I know the car will have to go through the 'out-of-state inspection' to confirm the car VIN matches the VIN on the non-Ohio title.
The title states year of manufacture of 1964, with the manufacturers 4 digit VIN, a make of Ford, and nothing given for a model. The only VIN plate on the car shows year of 1964, the same 4 digit VIN, but states the manufacturer as Unique Motorcars and a model of 289 FIA. Will the differences cause it to fail th inspection, and thus not be able to have the title transferred? Thanks, Keith |
You can usually go to one of the license plate bureaus and have the VIN inspected. I had a 1968 truck I bought a few years ago. I took it to the local license plate bureau and they inspected it. The guy didn't even know where the VIN tag was located. I had to show him it was on the door jamb. Then he questioned the 12 digit VIN number, which I had to explain.
99% of the time, they look at the title, look at the VIN on the car, if they match, you are set. There is no real inspection of any type. |
