More title questions

[29desoto]

Hey, all you lawyers! If I build a car, and get a reconstructed title in Oregon, where it is fairly easy, will it transfer to another state? Or do I have to do the reconstructed thing in that state?

Reason I ask, I am building my 29 Desoto with my grandson in mind (a few years down the road). And I don't want to pass on a pile of legal headaches.

Currently, he is in Utah, but that could change.

It actually sounds just about like the Oregon law. I am just wondering if I do the title thing here in Oregon, and then it gets down to Utah, would someone have to do it again? Or is it done, and just a title transfer?

I plan on getting it road worthy here and keeping it a few years. Sine the grandkid won't get it til I bite the big one, I hope it will be a while!

i get that, but even if it isnt just a transfer; it doesnt look like it would be too difficult.

Too true! I guess I will take my chances.

But unless he moves, it struck me later that he will have to deal with safety inspections and emissions. Altho I think the smog test will be waived.

Since the car will be "largely" a 1929!

another thought.

how many years is it going to be until you are going to be handing this car down to him? i mean, by the time he is ready to get it from you, all the laws might be completely different.

Was the car inspected and a vin number assigned? In most states, it is illegal to own a car without a vin number.
