I am considering bringing one of these back with me as a trophy (the Navy will ship it free) and also as something to fix up. Will I need any special types of license to drive it in the states? What are the antique car laws and how do they protect owners? How about safety regulations?
I’m a pretty tall guy, so I’m considering taking out the front seats and just using the back seat. Would that be legal?
You can see some pretty good pictures here , if you’ve never seen the car. (Imagine a 6’2 guy crawling in and out ^_~)
Yeah I ride in a friends all the time its so fun! Good point about the exhaust though. I can imagine sucking the fumes out of an SUV lol. (probably healthier than breathing here though…)
Anyway, i don’t plan on using it as a main means of transportation, but I would like to scoot around downtown in it you know?
Not sure where you are going to reside, but you might wnt to consider registering it as an antique. If you are going to live in an area that has mandatory vehicle emission inspections, it may help.
lol wouldn’t that be great! actually as it turns out, i’m using an ‘opportunity lift’ to get my flown over once I find it. i.e. its going to be put on an empty cargo plane !!
