Hi! I’m also new, located in Laytonsville MD, trying to have mine register, the 6 digits VIN doesn’t help (and I’m trying to avoid “historic plates”)

 

[Lionel]

You will not get an inspection performed anywhere in Maryland per MSP memo. Depending on year your only option may be historic registration.

 

[NormB]

I got mine about 4-1/2 years ago. Registered historic - I barely put 50 hours a year on it driving. At the time I had the option for full registration, the law hadn’t taken effect yet.

I went through MD Tag and Title in Laurel, had plates in 3 days.

if you callGlen Burnie MVA, keep in mind as with all government bureaucracies there is a practical joke dept and a fairy godmother depar.

I spoke to both, the former sad no, the latter said yes.

a month later a friend went through the same thing but he actually went there.

keep us posted.

Most importantly, do you have a title?

 

[NormB]

Yes, but it had a clear Montana title when I bought it. I’d been lurking around this board and others for about 6 mos before buying so I had a good idea what could happen and the seller - RIP - was well-known.

Thanks Norm but I was actually asking dimi1970

I bought it through GovPlanet with a Utah tittle, then I took it to MVA in Gaithersburg MD, and got a MD Tittle (showing only 6 digits next to VIN). They gave me a "Temp" registration (stickers) in order to drive it to a "Maryland State Inspection" facility. When I finally got a place with the capacity to inspect my HMMWV, they did, all good, but they said: "there's nothing we can do with the 6-digits VIN, you need to go to Glenn Burnie and request a 17-digits VIN"

My HMMWV is a 2000 M1097A2 6.5L, I know I can get Historic plates, however, I am trying to get "regular plates"... To be continued...
