When building a hotrod or replica car I have found it vital to keep a file with all of the reciepts for materials and parts as well as any titles of parts cars that may have been purchased. When substantially complete the car must be taken to a State Patrol inspection station and if the paperwork is in order then a new title can be issued. Note in Washington State ownership (having title) does not mean the car can be driven as the State has a provision for title purposes only. Emissions is a seperate agency and has its own set of rules.

Yes to the above, When start collecting parts for a project that will need to be titled start a book on it.  A three ring binder with page savers works well.  Save each receipt no matter how insignificant you feel it is.  documentation of major parts is especially important.  If the engine, trans and rear axle came from a doner car, include paperwork that shows you purchased or owned the doner. The bill of sale for the doner or a photo copy of the title.

A written and photo log of the build in the book is good too.
