Antique and Custom-Built Vehicle Registration Process

Effective January 2, 2008, the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles is changing the procedure for registering an antique or custom-built motor vehicle. Customers who are bringing an antique or custom-built vehicle into North Carolina for first time registration, or who have custom assembled a motor vehicle will be referred to a DMV License and Theft Bureau Inspector. For details on contacting an Inspector in your area click here. Your local Inspector is equipped and ready to assist you with the procedures to properly register your antique or custom-built vehicle.

Antique Vehicle-defined as a motor vehicle that is at least thirty-five (35) years old measured from the date of manufacture (currently 1973 and older).

Custom-Built Vehicle- defined as a motor vehicle completely reconstructed or assembled from new or used parts. The vehicle will be registered showing the make as "custom-built" and the year the vehicle was built will be the model year. All custom-built vehicles will be branded as "Reconstructed Vehicle."


Forms needed for registration

Certificate of title or manufacturer's certificate of origin
