Andy promised to send me the title for the front half.
In the meantime, at least it's being stored indoors for a change.

And now to create buzz for it, make it a crew-cab pickup & it'll be more useful than only at prom time


Crew cab pickup is much better than a Bar-B-Q.

UPDATE 04/2017:

Racer Chris has picked up the Limo!



Question from the other side of the pond. I'm curious as to what the legal inspection process will be once the limo is finished. I guess it varies from state to state or is there some Federal regs that you all have to comply with ? Or if it passes CT regs is that ok for the whole of the US ?

Cheers
Andrew

It does vary from state to state. In PA, I could register it as an antique, one time payment for registration, no inspection ever and drive it whenever and where ever I wanted as long as it was not my primary vehicle. Some states are easy, some are not.

It varies by state. Some states, like South Carolina for example, have no inspections of any kind whatsoever for any cars of any age.
Some states, like North Carolina for example, have yearly emissions and safety inspections for cars under 20 years old. Then only safety and no emissions inspections for cars 20-30 years old. And then no inspections whatsoever for cars over 30 years old.
Other states, like California for example, have emissions inspections for all cars from 1976 and newer.
When you move to a state, you have to find out what the laws are for that state from the local Department of Motor Vehicles.

Once a car is registered in it's home state it can be driven anywhere in the US. Registration and inspections are two different things here. In North Carolina, for example, when I register a car I get my license plate immediately and I can drive it. Then if it's a car that needs some kind of inspection, I have a year before I need to get it inspected in order to renew my registration, which is done yearly. If it's an older car that doesn't need inspection, I just pay a yearly registration fee.

If you move from one state to a different state, you'll have to follow the new state's laws (or lack thereof) regarding registration and inspection in order to register it in that state, which you usually have 6-12 months to do (the amount of time also varies by state).
