manufactured or the year it is designed to resemble. A vehicle | ||
previously titled as other than a custom vehicle or street rod | ||
may be issued a corrected title reflecting the custom vehicle | ||
or street rod model if it otherwise meets the requirements for | ||
the designation. | ||

shall be listed as the make of the chassis or the make it is | ||
designed to resemble; (2) the model of the vehicle shall be | ||
listed as glider kit; and (3) the year of the vehicle shall be | ||
listed as the year presented on the manufacturer's certificate | ||
of origin for the chassis, unless no year is presented, then it | ||
shall be listed as the year the application was received. The | ||
vehicle identification number of the chassis shall be assigned | ||
to the engine, transmission, and rear axle if the engine, | ||
transmission, and rear axle were not previously assigned a | ||
vehicle identification number after an inspection under | ||
Section 3-406. | ||
(b) The certificate of title shall contain forms for | ||
assignment and
warranty of title by the owner, and for | ||
assignment and warranty of title
by a dealer, and may contain | ||
forms for applications for a certificate of
title by a | ||
transferee, the naming of a lienholder and the assignment or
| ||
release of the security interest of a lienholder. | ||

certificate of title a space where the owner of a vehicle may | ||
designate a beneficiary, to whom ownership of the vehicle shall | ||
pass in the event of the owner's death.
| ||
(c) A certificate of title issued by the Secretary of State | ||
is prima
facie evidence of the facts appearing on it.
| ||
(d) A certificate of title for a vehicle is not subject to
| ||
garnishment, attachment, execution or other judicial process, | ||
but this
subsection does not prevent a lawful levy upon the | ||
vehicle.
| ||
(e) Any certificate of title issued by the Secretary of | ||
State is
subject to a lien in favor of the State of Illinois | ||
for any fees or
taxes required to be paid under this Act and as | ||
have not been paid, as
provided for in this Code.
| ||
(f) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a | ||
certificate of title issued by the Secretary of State to a | ||
manufactured home is prima facie evidence of the facts | ||
appearing on it, notwithstanding the fact that such | ||
manufactured home, at any time, shall have become affixed in | ||
any manner to real property. | ||

in another State, it is desirable to retain | ||
registration of said vehicle in
such other State, such | ||
applicant need not surrender but shall submit for
inspection | ||
said evidences of such foreign registration and the Secretary | ||
of
State upon a proper showing shall register said vehicle in | ||
this State but
shall not issue a certificate of title for such | ||
vehicle.

the actual vehicle or the make it is designed to resemble | ||
(e.g., Ford or Chevrolet); the model of the vehicle shall be | ||

inspection, the vehicle may be registered in the following | ||
manner: (1) the make of the vehicle shall be listed as the make | ||
of the chassis of the actual manufacturer; (2) the model of the | ||
vehicle shall be listed as glider kit; and (3) the year of the | ||
vehicle shall be listed as the year presented on the | ||
manufacturer's certificate of origin for the chassis, unless no | ||
year is presented, then it shall be listed as the year the | ||
