Hello All...
Well my M35A2 finally showed up, and it is REALLY in great shape, much
nicer than the pictures in the eBay auction showed! I'll post some
photos soon and email the link to this list. The seller's brother
works at the DRMO in Texas and hand-picked this M35A2 for his brother.
His brother (the seller) then used it as a mascot for his antique
store and hardly ever drove it. The truck is remarkably
complete...every little clip and chain and screw and part seems to be
here!
Anyway, I'm ready to transfer and register it here in Kalifornia.
I am seeking advise SPECIFICALLY from any of you who have actually
personally registered an out-of-state M35A2 or other heavy truck in
the fine state of Kalifornia.
I'm especially interested in the following aspects:
o Is a Antique/Collector Vehicle license good to get?
o How can I avoid commercial truck road taxes?
o Can I get the "CA Number" waived to lower insurance requirements?
o Are there insurance issues concerning vehicles over 10,000 Lbs?
Then I have questions about the license I will be required to get to
drive it:
o Do Antique and Collector vehicles require a Class B license?
o If I need a Class B, how do I go about getting it?
Thank you! I will post the compiled registration and licensing
procedure as a summary from your responses as a reply to this message.
