To get a title, I took the frame to the CHP Inspection station, explained that: "I want to build a bike using my components, on an old frame that I found in a barn. Heres the frame. can you check the numbers for me real quick?" The officer checked the numbers, confirming that they were out of the system.

Later, when the bike was together, I took it back for another scheduled inspection and they gave me the paperwork to get a new title.

It's not that big a deal! Just be careful.
Called an "Assembled Vehicle Title" in Mi and about the same deal.
