Colorado Registration Experience

[twobjshelbys]

I'd sent in in late Jan for my personalized collector plate - I got SPRSNAK. We have to pass emissions (Front Range, i.e. Denver/Boulder areas) but only once. Then we get a renewal every 5 years but don't have to do emissions again. My emissions an engine running problems are documented elsewhere. After I passed I went to get my plate. The really cute lady soon figured she was in over her head and passed me to the office manager. I had to do the following makeups:

1. The VIN Verification form was not filled out correctly (stuff in the wrong boxes). She even made the corrections and told the sheriff what to do.

2. I had to get it weighed at a commercial scale. A stone yard down the road charged me $3 and oggled it.

3. I had to get a MSRP statement from Shelby since they had no records. They wanted to ding me for the $560K of an average 1965 Cobra 427 from the "book" [that is what the title says] but I explained this was a continuation series. "Oh, a kit car". Kind of but not strictly. She told me to get a MSRP for the roller off the internet.

Done, I have all the forms and will try again this week.
