Lots of interesting comments.
Two months ago I brought an RUCC replica into California from Texas. Prior to the purchase I contacted the CA DMV Technical Services Division and provided all the information about the car; it is a Cobra replica kit car, it was completed in 2004, the engine is a small block Ford built in 2003 using then currently available new parts and has no emissions equipment whatsoever, etc., has only 5900 miles, it is (was) currently titled , registered and insured in Texas as a 1966. After a 10 minute consultation with the resident kit car expert, I was told that it is considered a 1966 and titling and registration would not be an issue and no smog inspection would be necessary.
After getting the required Vehicle Verification at my local AAA office, I had my new plates in my hands in about 10 minutes and the title from the DMV arrived about 10 days later.
The car is currently insured with AAA with no restrictions whatsoever.
