I just bought my first bronco and I am not really sure if I can just transfer my title without plating it since it doesn't run? I'm sure somebody on here lives in Douglas county that could clue me in.

I'm glad I ran into a group of you guys at twin peaks a couple weeks ago. Can't wait to get to work on it!!!

I remember you, glad you joined up. If you have a Colorado title and it's a 1975 or older, just go down to the DMV and register it. Don't forget you'll need proof of insurance so you may want to wait till it's running.

Sounds good. Thanks for the help

What part of Douglas county do you live in.? There are a few of us down here

Isn't there a penalty you have to pay if you don't register a car within some period of time in Colorado?

I believe it maxes at 125 or 150 bucks. Way cheaper than the insurance for a non running rig

I just got tags for my pop-up camper. I bought it in September. The penalty was $13.00. Not sure what a Bronco would be.

I had a truck that I didn't drive for a few months in Douglas County. I just called the DMV and asked what the fine would be. Then I called the insurance company to find out what it would cost to have comprehensive only coverage on it. Basically just enough insurance in case a tree falls on it or something (right HockeyDad?!). It was like $13/mo for that coverage so it was cheaper to do that than pay the fine. Just stop in at a DMV and ask your questions...

On a similar note, I just found two sets of '73 license plates in real good shape. I can put them on my 73, right? I have the collector plates now, so if I put these on, will I have to have emissions done?

You can use year of manufacture plates. You have to keep a current set of plates registered & register your old plates with the state. You can only display your year of manufacture plates on the way to club events, car shows, or occasional leisurely drives.

There is a little more info here that Chris found, about 1/2 way down the page

Great! Thanks! I found these two sets at an antique store. Only paid $5 for each set. Anyone need a set since I bought both?

I'll grab the set you don't need, thanks. Are you going to the next breakfast?

I'm looking for 1967's. I'll keep my eye out for other years if people are interested. Peter

I am going to be moving a bunch of stuff from my Sedalia house to my new old Cap Hill place that weekend, but I will be driving up Santa Fe so maybe I'll stop in.

And I'm always in antique stores (remember I am I think the only female here:) so I will also keep my eyes out for nice sets of plates.

Cool!
