(a) Any person engaged in the business of selling limited use vehicles is required to be registered as a dealer in accordance with section 415 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, and is subject to Part 78 of this Title relating to dealers and transporters. A limited use vehicle shall be considered a motor vehicle in all respects in determining whether registration as a dealer is required.

(b) A person who is registered as a dealer pursuant to section 415 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, if he wishes to engage in the business of selling limited use vehicles, may apply for the issuance of appropriate limited use vehicle dealer plates. A limited use vehicle may be operated on the public highway with dealer plates only when dealer plates appropriate for the specific type of limited use vehicle being demonstrated are properly affixed to such vehicle.

(c) A manufacturer of limited use vehicles, as defined in paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of section 102.8 of this Part, who is also a limited use vehicle dealer and who is named as manufacturer or first assignee on the manufacturer's statement of origin, shall not be required to use a certificate of sale (form MV-50) in transferring the ownership of a vehicle described on such manufacturer's statement of origin to another registered dealer. The transfer of ownership may be made on the next assignment on the manufacturer's statement of origin. A vehicle so transferred shall not be required to be entered in the dealer's book of registry, but a record of acquisition and transfer must be maintained. A transfer of ownership to any person, other than a registered dealer, shall be made on a certificate of sale (form MV-50) and shall be supported by the manufacturer's statement of origin.

(d) The provisions of article 12-A of the Vehicle and Traffic Law and Part 82 of this Title, relating to motor vehicle repair shops, apply to any person engaged in the business of repairing or diagnosing limited use automobile malfunctions for compensation. The provisions of article 12-A of the Vehicle and Traffic Law and Part 82 of this Title do not apply to any person engaged in the business of repairing or diagnosing limited use motorcycle malfunctions for compensation.
