What year (199x or 2009) and designation (MC or car) will be assigned to this vehicle?
That's why I mentioned asking your local state ref, since whether or not it's still a car or changes to a MC depends on them, which I imagine is somewhat subjective.

SPCNS registrations are non-transferable, so if you sell it, it would have to be as parts via a bill of sale.
