    California registration experience.

    There is no issue going from historic to commercial or house car, motor home, if you have the correct paperwork. The issue tends to be going from commercial to historic. I have not had any issue with the CHP, even during a level 1 inspection, I just told them where I was going, they never asked...

    The Leo's enforce the vehicle code. All you need to do is have a copy of the pertinent sections with you. Be nice to them and do not talk yourself into a ticket. The DMV form does not exactly reflect the wording of the vehicle code.

    Who to use to move a Tank?

    Without knowing the details it is hard to figure the best or most cost effective way to transport the tank. The regulations, escort and route mapping, and permits vary by state. Your shipping options include rail and barge in addition to trucking. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of...

    Which CHP office? What are you going to use the truck for? The only thing that 2 axles does is eliminate the CDL requirement if the GVW is under 26,000 lbs. You will still have commercial truck that is not CARB compliant. The truck will still be subject to all the requirements for a...

    Maxtor In your situation I would try to register it historic since the form 97 says it is an 1989, Sacramento will reject the application based on my last conversation with them. If that happens just PNO it until next year. If you need to move it you can just get a trip, or moving, permit to...

    Who to use to move a Tank?

    First question is condition of the the tank? Does it run and move under its own power? If not can if be towed? Does the turret and gun need to be moved to transport. Second question how far is it going? If it is going on the road permits will be required for weight and width. Third are the...

    California registration experience.

    Fist question, what year is your truck? Second what do you intend to use it for? Third what agency is this commercial officer with? The issues with this plan are 1 you will need commercial insurance which is very expensive, one year for the current vehicle will probably run what you paid for...

    It is not historic yet. You have to wait until next year before the computer will accept it, this is per the historic vehicle registration unit in Sacramento. Do not take it to the CHP unless you have a moving permit, insurance card and a class B CDL.
