In my state, I can't legally purchase a vehicle without a title. No exceptions. No title, no registration, can't insure it, etc.
In Vermont, you can register any vehicle older than 15 years old with just a bill of sale. No title necessary. Once you do that, a lot of states accept the Vermont registration and let you transfer that to your state, which will automatically get you a legit new title.
That's wild. Really appreciate the info. The last step of my conversion was gutting it and making it all electric.... Already did that, now I can't really take it anywhere.... Bad planning on my part.
