With respect to glider trailers, you either need (1) a properly signed
title from PA (or another state) AND a bill of sale or (2) a paper
trail that shows conveyance of possession going all the way back to
the manufacturer. I've done it both ways, once for each of the glider
trailers I've bought. It helped that I didn't deal with a store front
"get your tags here" operation, but rather a guy recommended by a car
collectors (who is always buying and selling things having dubious
provenance).

You might find it easier registering the trailer in New Mexico, rather
than dealing with Pennsylvania. But then, I have no experience with
New Mexico's DMV! *grin

Do you have a current title and registration for the trailer?

In New Mexico, for registering the trailer, there will be a trailer
inspection to check the vin# against the current registration/title,
and there must be a "proper" Bill of Sale. The form is online. *In the
past I have been unable to get a temp tag for bringing a sailplane/
trailer into the state. Once in the state you can get a 30 day tag
while any problems with titles/registration are being cleared up.
Unfortunately, the best bet may be to borrow a plate for transport.

Take the plates off and claim it is from Utah. No registration
required for light trailers.
