NJ Collector Vehicle Status

[WhatsUpDOHC]

NJ Residents -

I found that "Collector Vehicles" can be exempt from NJ Inspection.

The car has to be proven to be a limited production vehicle (no problem here) and only be driven 3000 miles/year.

With this, you get a special inspection sticker and only have to present to inspection to validate that you haven't exceeded the mileage - No OBD connection, no unsupported codes, never again having to return the car to stock every two years.

I sent in the completed form, pictures of the car (front/rear/sides/interior/engine/trunk), a copy of my certificate from Ford, copy of insurance card to Trenton and within 2 weeks got a letter back accepting my application.

Now, I only have to take the letter to the DMV with $25 to get a voucher that I can take to an inspection station to document my mileage and get the Collector Vehicle inspection sticker.

Then, only return to validate mileage.

I think that I've seen this in other states but wanted to share.

Could do except for the mileage.

Its a good program, I had it on my 85 olds 442, also on a 87 ford f250 junk truck,and my 88 Lincoln.


All they do is check the mileage.

that's why i haven't done the marauder because I been around 5000 a year .

Do you need collectors insurance or will regular stuff do the trick?

The state asked for proof of collector insurance but, ultimately I think, it's about limited production and annual mileage.

What do you have to lose?: Send the application to Trenton with copies of certificate, pics, insurance card and see if they accept.

I just got mine on the Marauder. All they do is Check the odometer and that's it. After you get the voucher from nj DMV. You have 90 to get it done after you pay for the voucher .
