We register all vehicles in Arizona. Transfer the title for you depending on which state you live in. It's originally titled as a 1955 Special Construction here in AZ, issue it a brand new VIN plate from the Arizona DMV since all our chassis are tubular construction, never being on a VW pan of any sort. When transferred to purchaser in CA, registration/title is then moved over as a 1955 making it smog exempt. In no way whatsoever will we title it as anything else other than a 1955 550 Spyder Spec Con. With this, you can still get collector's car insurance... premiums are extremely cheap.
