acprimus631C Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 This truck was owned by a company from Derby. Can't remember their nameIMG_0592.JPGIMG_0593.JPGDon't know that company's name but I know there was someone down that way that had an ex-Arute 1974 DM800 lowbed tractor with a winch. It was in this color last time I saw it.

Wobblin-Goblin Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Anybody know the process of registering old trucks in CT? My uncle and I want to register our Macks (1958 B65LT and 1964 B61SX) as antiques but we've been getting conflicting information on whether or not they need to be DOT inspected before the DMV will issue antique plates. The trucks will not be used commercially.Thanks.

blackdog2 Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 Fill out inspector qualification form and annual inspection form and you should be alright bill of sale or title helps too . Ive been doing that way for the last 20 plus years at least 30 trucks trailers even one 93 RB from Canada no heavy highway use tax .Insurance card plus a accord sheet tells the amount of the policy .

Wobblin-Goblin Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 So you are saying these trucks need to be inspected before they can be issued antique plates? And they have to be inspected annually?Are you also saying the "inspector" can be him, me, or almost anyone off the street?I'm not trying to play dumb, I just want to be crystal clear about this because we keep getting different answers from different sources.

job14-1 Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 If not going to be "used/worked", with a antique plate, go to DMV with insurance card, title ( if post 1980) bill of sale, reg form filled out, and go home with plates, no inspection needed. If any problems, explain to them it is a toy, you go to shows, and do not work it. If for some reason no go, visit another branch. No problem at Bridgeport branch, other than the lines. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/25325-connecticut-construction-trucks/page/65/#findComment-271966 Share on other sites More sharing options...

job14-1 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I personally never had a exemption letter, but the 1st one I did tell the guy the truck was not going to be worked. Several other trucks done after didn't even tell them that.

Class 85 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 Danbury wanted the letter, went Bridgeport and walked out w/ plates. Only problem is they lost the title I turned in so they wouldn't issue me a new title.The date changed on Oct 1st anyway that anything over 20 yrs oid would not get a title.
