I think it also depends greatly on the mood of the person at DMV, whether they get static from you, and whether the car is out of system more than 5 yrs.

When a friend went to register a 53 after several years non-op, they gave each other a mutual hard time and he had to have a very thorough CHP inspection. I had a 54 in similar circumstances and just had the DMV guy walk outside and look at the numbers.

My first Patrician was also non op, owners had signed pink on wrong line, both deceased, but I had to send registered letters to last known, present unopened to DMV to prove status, and then post bond but no mechanical inspection other than numbers. Go figure.
