1. I purchased an antique vehicle on a bill of sale. How do I get a title for it?

A vehicle is considered an antique if it meets the following conditions:

• The vehicle is 35 or more years old
• is in "original' or restored to original condition
• and has no modifications such as:
  • aftermarket wheels
  • intake headers
  • intakes, etc.

You will need a MVE/VIN inspection performed by the Kansas Highway Patrol.  Once the inspection is complete, take the inspection form (MVE-1) and submit the inspection and bill of sale to your local County Treasurer for application.

2. I bough a vehicle 35 years or more old on a bill of sale, but the vehicle has aftermarket performance and dress-up parts installed. How do I get a title for it?

Your vehicle no longer meets the definition of an antique.  You will have to replace the parts with original or reproduction restoration parts before seeking an MVE/VIN inspection, or you may file a Quite Title action with your local District Court.

3. I bought a street rod from out of state and it is titled as a 1927 Ford. Can I get it inspected as an antique?

No. Only original antiques with no modifications can be titled as antiques in Kansas.
