A easy day at the DMV

Seems like I always read horror stories about registrations and titles. So since my day went well I figured I would give them a positive. Went today to title my 52 Plymouth easy as it already had a NJ title but my 46 Dodge truck was titled with a engine number. So I filled out a simple correction form gave them photos of the correct serial number data plate. After a little confusion 3 people looking at my paperwork and talking to each other they said not problem but I had to pay a $20.00 fee. I smiled said thank you and paid the fee sometimes life is simple.

Good to hear it went well.

You got real lucky, Ed. When we moved to New Jersey from New York, I had a 1974 New York transferable registration, signed over to me from the former owner, for my '51 business coupe, with the motor number (long gone) as the vehicle ID. I wanted to title the car in NJ with the VIN, but got nowhere with my local (Freehold) DMV. I called Trenton (main DMV) and still got nowhere. They suggested I register the car in New York and amend the registation at the same time, then use the amended NY registration (with the VIN on it) to get a NJ title. This what I ended-up doing. What a hassle! Like I say, you got off lucky.....

Most likely went easier because it was a NJ title. It originally was a Pa title transfered it to NJ last year. Did not try do it then had a minor problem with it and was glad it went through.Since I was going to title the 52 Plymouth I figured I would give it a try and save a trip to Trenton. I also deal at the Freehold dmv and for the most part they work with me no complaints. I do try to go off hours when they are not too busy.
