A 4612 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Establishes motor vehicle registration for street rods and custom motor vehicles.

This bill creates a special registration program in New Jersey for street rods and custom motor vehicles, allowing owners to legally register these unique cars separately from standard vehicles. The legislation defines street rods as pre-1948 vehicles or replicas that have been altered from their original design, while custom vehicles are at least 25 years old or resemble older models and have been modified. Owners must certify that these vehicles will not be used for general daily transportation but can be driven for occasional use, exhibitions, club events, parades, and tours. The bill establishes a unique license plate design in consultation with the National Street Rod Association and requires a $50 initial fee plus an annual $10 fee, while exempting these vehicles from certain modern safety equipment requirements that would normally apply.
