Here is a picture of it.

As long as the car has a current valid title and registration it should not be a problem registering it. I registered my euro SC in several states and never had an issue. Same with insurance coverage. No once asked to see my old epa/dot paperwork . It seems its only really needed the first time the car is titled. But, it is of great peace of mind for subsequent owners.
