New Hampshire does not require titles on vehicles twenty years or more old.  However registering a hot rod with a standard auto registration will not allow you to run without fenders, bumpers, no hood, etc. A simple bill of sale written on a scrap of paper is good enough in New Hampshire to register a car. However New Hampshire has a Street Rod plate that allows for these modifications.

Criteria is pre-1948 similar to what NSRA uses for screening vehicles.  You must have a body, original or replica, that resembles a pre-1948 vehicle.  Each vehicle is inspected, prior to registration, by NHDOT inspector.  The criteria in the law is the same as the NSRA safety inspection criteria.  You need wipers, lights, safety glass and most important, they will inspect for scrub line.  This means the vehicle has to roll easily with all four tires flat, no piece of frame or suspension can hit the ground when tires go flat.  When building a street rod, most guys will put four steel rims only on the car and make sure it rolls.  The DOT inspector will issue a VIN and affix it to the vehicle if you successfully pass the vehicle inspection.  You make an appointment and the NHDOT inspector will come to your shop or garage and do the inspection.

You are issued one plate for rear of the car and street rod plates have an inspection date of April of each year, irregardless of owner birthday, so that it provides for the fact most street rods are stored in New Hampshire's long winter.  Go to
