Buying out of state...

[kis86]

I wasn't sure where to put this, but...

I'm buying a car that was recently auctioned off in another state. It has no plates on it. I will be picking it up aprx. 5 hours form home, and I need to get it back. I was going to trailer it, but the trailer won't work out and so my next option is to drive it.

My question is, I can get insurance, but what do I need to do about plates? I can't pick up plates since the car is not yet in my name. It will be as soon as we sign the title, but even then I'm still not in my state. I'm picking the car up in MN, and I live ont he border in Fargo ND. ...can't just go register it. Any ideas?

Right now I'm leaning toward sticking the plates from my svx onto this one, and being careful

I need to pick it up on Tuesday, so applying for temp registration etc is out I think.
