I'd love to have a real 2nd gen racecar though.

I may call the DMV and see what they suggest.
Are you going to Tow it with Tow? hahaha....

Call the Highway patrol, around here, the CHP has jurisdiction in this area.....

bout 15 years ago i bought a 66' Malibu Convert, built it, then when it came time to registrar it (and the paperwork was clean, just non-opped), the DMV said it already had that VIN in the system for somebody else. Well, it wasn't the vin# we both had, it was the model # on the pink, so i took it to the CHP, they "confiscated" for a day to verify it with what they called "confidential sources", and then ended up using the vin that came with the car, (and then the DMV denied the paperwork)....its a funny, long story that also has to do with 9/11

Funny too, the CHP told me the data base for all cars in the US is in Texas, is that near u? haha
