I'm looking for someone who has gone through the process of having their car titled in New York State.
Yes, there a few hot rods throughout NYS and lots of other FFR cars. It's kind of a painful process, but if you have your paperwork in order and do the steps correctly you should have no problem. Where are you located? Some areas have enhanced emission requirements and they might require cats. The most important thing is to have documentation of where the major parts came from and the VIN numbers/bill of sale from the original donor car or receipts from the vendor you bought any crate components like engine or trans.
first place to start:

Here's a pretty good thread about it.

I've registered my 818 in NY. My comments are in this thread that Arrowhead mentioned and my build thread . You can also ask me any questions you have on the process
Painful is being polite. One of many items I needed was a certified weight slip.
ulster county asks what about the stuff like regs.png
so it will register as a 1933ford or current year ?

It will be registered as a 20XX custom, they don't care if it looks like a '33 Ford or a Cobra. That form you posted a picture of is the same form sent to anyone in NY building a home built vehicle. Unless things have changed, I was told by the DMV Albany office you only need to mark off what systems you have installed (whether they were on the engine originally or not) as technically "you" are the manufacturer at this point. However you may need cats as downstate has higher emissions standards than upstate and I'm not sure how Ulster county is treated. Don't sweat the bumpers too much, you just need to have something. Sadly mine fell off as soon as I got home from the inspection.
