Like I said though, don't know for sure, it is heresay. I hope it is that easy though.
Thats right, I have done it several times. Just bring a couple reciepts for some or all of the parts you purchased to build it and if it's under a certain weight limit they will give you a registration. If it's over the limit(cant remember what the limit is) then you may have to get it looked at and assigned a vin# and title. I've built 3 pickup bed trailers and gone in with reciepts just for the wheels and tires and not had any problems.
