No registration plates or certificate shall be issued by the motor vehicle registrar for a motor vehicle unless and until the applicant therefor shall attach a properly executed motor vehicle purchaser's certificate to the application for license registration. If an application for registration or transfer is made for a motor vehicle that has been previously registered in this state and the applicant is the same person in whose name the registration had previously been issued, the motor vehicle purchaser's certificate need not be submitted to the motor vehicle registrar.
