    Does PA have a bonded title option for registration and licensing?

    What are you intending to do with your cab & frame? If you're going to make a hot rod out of it, why not go the PA "street rod" title & registration route? That way, the state will issue you a legal title & you won't have to worry about any dead guys. That's what I & others have done here when all we had was a bunch of parts & receipts. Do you have a bill of sale for your cab? There are threads here on this, so you might try the search feature.

    Pa is the worst state for this, I found it easier to go through broadway title or a place like that, no hassles at all that way.

    +1 just keep all of your receipts. If you are going to run without fenders you will need this title anyway.

    Even though these guys weren't involved in my "street rod" process, they have a very good reputation in PA & are very knowledgable. I'd suggest contacting them & not "buying" a title. You'll sleep a lot better. Welcome to the HAMB, Blast from the Past!

    As blast from the past has stated, The Pa street rod title system is really not that bad.
