Now this is a hybrid

Wisconsin as Hobbyist car. Easy peasy. The only two requirements of a manufactured hobbyist car to be street legal is: "Is it 20 years old?" and "Able to be recognized as the make and model at a single glance." Open headers? Sure! "Jet engine in an 89 geo metro?" Not a problem. "Mad max style car with deadly spikes and guns everywhere?" Don't rear end anyone!

OR

You can build a car in your garage, and register it as a hobbyist. Easy peasy. Doesn't have to resemble ANYTHING. Which is good, because you built it from scratch.

Added bonus, the registration never expires. No plate renewals! Caveat: You do need at least one regularly licensed vehicle. AAANNNDDD you can't drive it in January. But you can get a permit to do so, for $30 for the whole month, or $5 for 5 days.

The thread at C-C.com has been where I kept up with this build. Pretty awesome idea, and my favorite year Chevelle. It was my dream car back in HS. I'd still love one.

Same, that place has some beautiful builds. Helps if you like fish.

How difficult is it to get a heavily modified car like this registered in the us? Article makes it seem like it's heaps easier to do up here.

If it has a title, signals, glass and parts are all to spec...it would pass with flying colors here.
