Appendix E: Registration and Titling
You are building a race car. It was designed with closed course competition as its focus. If you choose to
use this vehicle on a public road, you are responsible for complying with all State and Federal regulations
governing Home-built vehicles.
Regulations vary from state-to-state. Your best source of information about titling and registration is
from your State Department of Motor Vehicles. Most of these agencies have specific regulations and
steps for you to complete when seeking registration of your vehicle.
Provided with your Factory Five Racing kit is a Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin. This document
records the origin of the kit and is not a vehicle title.
The component kit that we manufacture has no
VIN number. The number stamped on the frame matches the Certificate of Origin and is the kit serial
number.
In most States, upon completion of your kit, you need to bring this certificate along with receipts for any
parts used on your car and a copy of our invoice to your State DMV. Some states like Massachusetts
have a separate vehicle inspection division for specialty cars and custom built cars that assigns the VIN
numbers. Often times this division handles “salvage” vehicles as well.
