Registration of Dolly Dodge

[DollyDodge]

This morning I went to DMV and did the paperwork on Dolly Dodge and I was issued a temporary license for her. The new title paperwork went without a hitch. Her last registration papers I had were 1982. Anyway she is legal again (well except for the blinkers, need for new tires, and few other minor mechanical things).

Glad to hear you'll legally be on the road soon. Also, thank you for your contribution towards the cailfornia debt by way of the DMV.

(for me anyway) was when they looked for the records back to 85 when I had last registered the truck and couldn't find them. I had not filed for a non-operating permit which for $19 voids the requirement for paying yearly registratration in arrears from 1985-2010. 25 years of registration fees would not have been fun.

Good ol' DMV,

Congratulations!

I am glad I didn't have to pay back fees for sure.

Nice. In Illinois if you have not plated a vehicle for about 10 years, they purge the system and your vehicle is bumped from all records. This can be a good thing is some cases. Always helps to call and see if they have a record of your serial number. Good to hear you'll be on the road soon!

My old truck wasn't in the system anymore. All in all it went very easy

Unless they changed it, In IL. a vehicle is considered in storage after three years. Just have to pay for the plates to get it back on the road.

from what I've heard that may be the ONLY nice thing about driving regulations in Il. Otherwise it is a beautiful state.
