If the car was originally titled in PA it will have a "specialty construction" title with a PA issued VIN and VIN plate. It should be affixed to the passenger side of the firewall. If this is the case, then yes, in California SB100 is the way to go. Even if the car is titled as a "1965" vintage, in California I still recommend buyers go the SB100 route........Not that difficult to accomplish these days as most of the California Motor Vehicle departments have finally worked the bugs out of the process.
