Default HELP - MA registration issues

Looking for some guidance here. I just purchase a 2009 ERA (744) that was turn-key built. I am the second owner. It was originally titled, registered and inspected in NH in 2009 and has a NH VIN assigned to it.

I was able to register the car in MA, and I brought it to a MA Inspection station and they tell me I have to go through "MAC", even though it is not "new". I talked to a guy at a local MAC center and he says I can't get it inspected until I show all the receipts and can prove that the engine and drivetrain are from a pre-emissions control car, i.e. have "traceable" serial numbers.

Can this be right??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Larry

Your other option is to register in another state or seek exemption in MA by following the procedure for locating, purchasing, and dismantling a suitable exchange vehicle.

MA is a total disaster at the moment without a clear plan to register before you purchase a car.
