something nobody has mentoned here...you basically got two kinds of Drag cars.

#1- the once factory manufactured car,with Vin ana title that was once sold off the show room floor...and some point in its life it made it to a drag car.

#2- you have the custom built Tommy Mauney, Vanishing point,Hass,Bickle, Ed Horton,MCRACECARS....and many more custom chassis builders that will build a CM or MS car from scratch on a Jig with after market bodies ( rails included)....these cars do not come with titles...


I have one of these cars 63 vette,,Suncoast built chassis with Hairy Glass mounted Body...No title on this car either..just a Notartized "Bill of Sale".

Now i will say in the state of S.C. You can apply for a "VIN" # after filling out a form entitled "KIT CAR" or Home Built"...basically you submit all the reciepts you have with the kit car application to the SCDMV...they will send out a field agent to verify the car exisist and issue you a VIN Plate which must be attached to the car "they give you directions where to mount plate"...then from there you can get the car titled..i would think other states would have something simliar to this type of procedure...

i have had no reason to get it titled at this point..but i will have it done before i try to think about selling it..buyers would have a more at ease feeling about this type of ownership paper trail..specially when the larger amount of money is involved.
