Vehicle inspection in Texas, crazy easy!

[Guitardave]

When I registered my BDR from out of state they simply asked for a $ value, not purchase price. I am not going to publish the numbers but my stated and taxed value was a little more than half what I paid. They would not likely let a super low ball price get by but a reasonable amount for a used car will likely be fine.

The hard part for me was it was registered in New Jersey as 2009 model and so could not change to 1965 in Texas.

i had to complete some form (130-U i think) that required the seller to state the sales price and sign. i asked the guy how much we HAD to put on there (wink, wink) and he said his dealership owner would not put one penny less than the price. ouch. oh well - it's only money.

Any of you Dallas area guys have suggestions on a good place to get the safety inspection done? (Must be a master ASE per the form).

Took it to my dealership today and although I called them before hand and they said they could do it, they didn't actually have a master ASE in the shop.

Thanks,
