C2 of the Year Finalist - Unmodified 2020
My cousin is going through the same thing. He has a Roush stage 2 Mustang- (Sorry) and recently went to trade it in for a new car- he is a family man..
Any way the car is flipping spotless. Clean as a whistle, so he is at the dealer and after they certify the car and he is about halfway through the paperwork on the new car, the salesperson tells him his car is stolen, he was like WTF, I bought it new from the dealer, has the original papers and bill of sale. There are 3 cars with the same vin- Texas, Tennessee, Wyoming.
He has been working on this for over a year and has gotten no where...still spotless in his garage though...
I'm glad it has worked out for you and got your new tags.

In CT, they get you for property taxes on every car. Mine is in pieces in the garage for now and I would rather not have to register it.
I'm going to be at DMV on Wednesday for work and I'll have to ask.
I just hope someone there understands what I'm looking for.

The situation with Arkansas is not unique, Alabama does very similar things with cars older than 35 years. Current Alabama law does not title cars older than 35 years (it is a moving target).
A bill of sale is all I would need to register E53F001001 as MY VEHICLE in Alabama, assuming someone hasn't alreadu done so in another state.
