I'm not in law enforcement nor a lawyer - so do your own checking first.
I've done this quite a few times. An hour and a half...oh my. That would be a cake walk. I've done 800 - 1000 miles away a couple of times...fly out drive home.
In my midwestern state - you have 48 hours to transfer title and plates from the day the sales receipt is dated. So you can put any plate on the car, from another car that you own, and have 48 hours to get it home and get it registered. The assumption is...you sold your other car and now the plates are going on this new (used) car - you just have to get the paperwork done.
Whether you sold the other car or not is not important - you can just tell the out-of-state trooper that you did. He may say things like...you're not in your state...this is my state and it don't work like that 'round here... blah blah blah.
But as long as you are following the registration process for the state where the car will be registered (at least in my experience) - even a ticket won't stick. Just be sure you have documentation of the sale of the vehicle.
