I was looking for a chat like this also, I've got a shot at buying a 2000 civic Si with a salvage title missing the front sheet metal and the swap, price is dirt cheap, I know back home in NYC you'd have to get the car inspected by the state with all of the invoices for parts and submit them to the state, after a long ass wait for an appt, oh and you couldn't drive it to the inspection appt either. Is that the same for here in florida? I know a few people that register cars out here in FL and keep the cars up in NYC with FL tags like nothing ever happened.
