If you are having problems getting your hotrod titled you can try a third party DMV, usually they can do it with less hassle.  The state-run DMV's don't want the headache.

Maine does not require titles for vehicles older than 15 years. Maine is also a non-resident registration state. Which means you can get your car registered there even if you have no address in the state. So for states requiring the last registered owners signature to obtain a title, you can give an agency in Maine power of attorney to register your vehicle there and then you become the last registered owner and can sign the forms in your own state to obtain a title. You have to have the car insured and provide a bill of sale and you'll pay taxes in Maine and your own state though.

Maine does not require state inspection stickers for vehicles 25 years or older registered as antiques.  Also, under reciprocity agreements, it is extremely unlikely one would get cited for operating without sticker in any other state with regular passenger Maine plates.  (Check local laws for inspection-- usually "out of state" vehicles are exempt)
 
 
One may also possibly use a Maine registration as a "stepping stone" to getting a title in another state, "moving" there, etc.
