Not totally germain to the discussion but as a matter of interest,
Connecticut does not issue titles to cars older than 1970 - my 69 just
has an "exemption" letter which was free - usual registrations are $72
basic with an ad valorem surcharge (tax!)
Of course, whilst one would never encourage The Devil to sit on ones
shoulder, parts cars often have titles and almost always have vin plates
and one B is much the same as another in the big scheme!!
