Both Glider Kits and Kit Vehicles come with a Manufacturer’s Certificate of Origin (MCO). The MCO will specifically state that the vehicle is a Glider Kit or a Kit Vehicle. If the applicant does not have an MCO, the vehicle must be titled and registered as a reconstructed vehicle (T-270).

A "Glider Kit" is used to restore or reconstruct a wrecked or dismantled tractor. All glider kits include a chassis (frame), front axle, and body (cab). The kit may also contain other optional components.

A “Kit Vehicle” is a kit that can be purchased to make a modern vehicle look like a vehicle that is no longer built. These are normally replicas of sports cars or motorcycles.

A motor vehicle constructed from a glider kit or kit vehicle is titled as a new vehicle.

TITLE REQUIREMENTS:

The applicant must provide:

• Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin (MCO)
• The original title from the previous vehicle or a bill of sale from the previous owner.
• Application for Title and Registration (Form 812) completed and signed in ink.
• Certificate of Vehicle Inspection (Form 811), for all Kit Vehicles.
• Certified weight slip (Glider Kits, only)
  
  NOTE: Heavy Vehicle Use Tax is not applicable as a glider kit is titled as a new vehicle; however, you would need to enter “Y” for HV if the weight is over 8,000 pounds.
