Depending on the state you move to, you may not HAVE to title it in the new state to register, but I'd recommend doing it anyway. I moved around for 3 decades and retitled everything in every state. As long as you have a rosette-riveted cab VIN and matching title for it, you should be fine. If it's just a cab then you can just retitle it and register it as non-op. I'd think thru which frame you're gonna slap it on so you can at least describe the truck accurately (i.e. 2WD or 4WD, etc)
