It comes down to the interpretation of the law where you live. So location is important.

Most states go by the title, if your car has one. Why ask here - go to your local DMV and get the scoop on what you need to do.

:D Some DMV's are like that. Ok, then how are your "regular" cars registered? Are they registered through a title from the car or something else? Do your cars have titles in Tennessee? What paperwork do you have for the Bradley? Is there a title to the pan or just a bill of sale?

You're in luck, Tennessee has adopted the current SEMA legislation related to hot rods, customs and kit cars:

http://www.semasan.com/main/main.aspx?id=62366

You need to email SEMA and find out just what was passed and how they recommend going about getting your Bradley on the road. The process is VERY easy and the law is an extremely fair one that's a snap to comply with.

Short of contacting SEMA, go to your insurance agent. Mention the recently passed SEMA legislation by House Bill Number and have them walk you through it. Easy Peasy

Luck,

TC

Looks like the Governor of Massachusetts signed the same SEMA legislation into law just the other day ! ! I didn't even know. Time to get my GT40 replica all legal I guess.

Cool or what?

Luck with your Bradley ! ! !

This site may be your best hope... Study it well on all aspects of getting a registration and you may have to walk the "drone" at DMV through process to get your registration....

Not to say that I condone this... but in a pinch buy a pre 74 VW title, weld the VIN in by the shift coupler, remove any other numbers as necessary, then title at the DMV. Shazam

That is a crap shoot and it may cost you your car. If caught in this state, that will happen plus a lot more.
