Kind of resurrecting this thread, but there is a bill in front of the state legislature (HB 1755) to create a specific registration and titling class for former military vehicles and assembled vehicles, including kit cars and dune buggies. It's already passed the House and is now in front of the Senate Transportation Committee. Feel free to contact the committee members to urge support to pass the bill to make it easier to register new 818's in Texas:
