The sf97 is NOT a title. It is a certificate to obtain title. You can just pay extra and have GP send you a real title. Then just take that in and trasfer it.
You do not get a title and an sf97. One or the other.
You are correct. I typed before I thought. I had SF97 and bill of sale to apply for title.

What was the final outcome? I am getting ready to attempt the same.
Easy to get titled. Inspection, Florida reassignment letter, sf97s and proof of insurance for plates! I've done 3. The first bmv I went to wouldn't touch it. The next town over was night and day difference.

In Indiana they don't have any models for m1123 or any of the other models. They used H1 for both mine.
Mine is a m1097r1......that was a thought too as was just trying a generic "utility truck"
Was there any concern with the serial number vice the 17 digit VIN? I have seen on some threads that it has been a pain with some locations

No issue with the VIN being 6 digits! Just have to get someone that will work with you. Some DMV people don't like there job I think and take it out on you.

I have had 3 HMMWVs and I have not had any problems getting them titled in Indiana. You need to have a good DMV that knows what they are doing.
I've said it before and I'm guessing that it still applies after reading this thread. You just have to find a good DMV. There are probably 5 closer to me but I drive 19 miles away because they are nicer and have never done me wrong. They have asked why and I said because I like all of you better.

Where do you go? I am just back from the BMV. They said they will only title a Humvee in the state of IN as “Off Road Use Only”. She called the title place in Indianapolis. The said no Humvee in the state of IN. I walked out.
I have a 2010 M1123. All refreshed and it has a FL title. Plus I have full coverage insurance under Anerican Collectors. I bought it from a dealership. I have all the paperwork. BMV said no. They also said if anyone has an IN title, it would be because someone let it slip. And it could be revoked down the road.
The dealership says I need to call Dirtlegal and they will do it. But I don’t understand that.

any help from my fellow Indiana folks would be appreciated. I only have 4 days left to title it per the finance company. What do I do.
