The problem with Alabama vs PA (and other states) has to do with a company called "Titles Unlimited", which was taking "new" builds and titling them as "vintage" 60's vehicles. When the doodoo hit the fan, anything coming from Alabama is now under intense scrutiny.
To be honest, your best bet is to go through the Special Constructed title process

The process is quite simple, and when you are done, will have an emissions exempt vehicle with a proper state issued VIN and VIN tag. Hundreds of Cobra replicas have been through it without a hitch. So while you are fighting with the DMV, you might consider asking them if switching to the MV-426B and special constructed might be the way to go.
Finally, know where in PA you are located would help us guide you to people in your area with the proper contacts to make titling your car run smoother, again if you are not trying to reinvent the wheel with the special titles division in Harrisburg.
