Hello 914 World. More specifically 1975 & older California 914-6 conversion Owners.
I have been having a 1975 914 restored / rebuilt/ modified by a Company just outside SLC UT. (hi eric / james...) The build may be done sometime this year (right ??). I'm trying to gather info on Titling & registering in CA. Here's an overview of my situation: I have a Colorado Title. The Title does say *DUPLICATE* on it. The name on the Title is not the person I purchased the car (tub) from. That Gentelman lives in UT. I have a hand written Bill of Sale from the 1st Owner in CO. dated 07/26/16 to the 2nd Owner in UT. And I have a printed signed "form" Bill of Sale dated 5/22/22 from the UT. Owner to me. The car will (should) have all the correct VIN tags. However, it will have a rebuilt 1995 gen993 3.8 & rebuilt 915 transaxle. Does anyone have any experience with a situation like this ? Registering an out of state, modified pre 1976 car in CA. What kind of "hoops" will I have to jump thru ?? Has anyone been so lucky as to go to the CA DMV and just register & Title as a regular ol' 1975 auto ?? HeLp !!!! |

Good luck to CCSmith58.
This will not help, but I am curious. During the 3 years my 914 was off the road I got the title in Colorado, after purchasing a non-running car in Texas. But when I went to register it (which actually was easy) they required me to pay for the 3 years of registration (and taxes) while it was in my garage. Does California have anything like that? |
