I recently purchased two old tractors from a municipality. I received state (California, also where I live) titles for each. Both were road registered and had plates, though I did not get the plates as they were special E plates. The municipality filed releases of liability including the purchase prices with the Ca DMV.
I have no intention to use the tractors on the road, and my friends tell me most old tractors are bought and sold only using a bill of sale and that I should do nothing as far as the DMV. I am fine with that, however my concern is that if I do not go to the DMV, I will be afoul of some law and they will come looking for me at some point. I'm guessing I could probably just request a change of ownership with the DMV and not re-register for road use, in which case I would still pay change of ownership and sales tax fees at minimum, which would still be a fair chunk of change.
