I am moving to Texas early next year, but have been offered a car by a friend in Oklahoma.
What will I need to do to the car when I move it into Texas, and how long will I have to do this?
I assume I will have to put on Texas plates and possibly have some sort of inspection?

Any advise please

Just contact a local DMV office when you get to Texas. It's a pretty
painless process.

I have not lived in TX in 10 years, but normally you need to have a signed title transfer, then re-register it with in 30-90 days of moving to the state. You will probably need proof of insurance also to register it.

Isn't the info on their website?

Yes.

I'm sure that Texas DMV can help you. As a matter of pure speculation -- I would make sure you transfer title in TEXAS -- I can envision you might have to pay two registration fees if you transfer title in OK and then register it in TX.
