Retitling a FL COD vehicle

[Frank_Jaeger]

I'm reading online about getting a title for a Certificate of Destruction vehicle. I know that I can get a title by going through Kentucky DMV, but would I be able to register the car in Florida at that point?

Maybe you should contact your local tag agency.
Why the heck would you need to go to Kentucky to get a car titled in Florida???

Yup, call your tax colletor office for your county. I had an issue with registering a car with a rebuilt titled car from CA to FL. They had to look into their system to cross reference the title even tho it said salvaged/rebuilt on the title, just to make sure the car is road-worthy.

Oh, so because I'm not asking how to import a mad tyte Skyrine y0 I'm suddenly on the wrong forum when it comes to vehicle registration? Get your head out of your ass, buddy. A certificate of destruction means a vehicle cannot be driven on the road. It's deqd. The only state that will accept COD for registration is Kentucky, who will then issue a title if you go through the proper channel. All I need to know is, will Florida accept the title despite the history, or is the VIN somehow permanently tarnished?

Some people on this forum, other than yourself, seem to know a lot about these processes; that's who I'm addressing my question to. Not some dude from Cali who's ready to insult me without even knowing what he's talking about.

Alright I'll do that. I haven't simply because I don't trust them to give me a straight answer. If they suspect me of "title washing," I doubt they'll be forthcoming if there's a loophole in the process. That's why I asked here, in case someone has personal experience.
