Street Rod and Custom Vehicle Bill Reintroduced in New Jersey
A version of SEMA model legislation (A.B. 2636) that would create a vehicle
registration classification for street rods and replica custom vehicles and
provide for special license plates for these vehicles was reintroduced in
the New Jersey Assembly. Last year, comparable legislation was not enacted
into law in New Jersey prior to the legislature?s adjournment. A.B. 2626
defines a street rod as an altered vehicle manufactured before 1948 and a
custom as an altered vehicle at least 25 years old and manufactured after
1948. The bill allows kit cars and replica vehicles to be assigned a
certificate of title bearing the same model year designation the body of the
vehicle most closely resembles.
We Urge You to Contact All Members of the Assembly Transportation, Public Works
and Independent Authorities Committee (List Attached Below) Immediately to
Request Their Support for A.B. 2636
* A.B. 2636 provides specific registration/titling classes and license
plates for street rods and customs.
* A.B. 2636 only holds street rods and customs to the equipment standards
specified by law during the model year listed on the title of the
vehicle.
* A.B. 2636 provides that a replica vehicle will be assigned the same
model year designation as the production vehicle it most closely
resembles.
* A.B. 2636 permits street rods and custom vehicles to display blue dot
taillights.
* A.B. 2636 provides that vehicles titled and registered as street rods
and custom vehicles may be used for occasional transportation,
exhibitions, club activities, parades, tours, etc. and not for general
daily transportation.
