As long as all the safety equipment is in place and smog requirements met, complete with proper certification.....what is the issue. DMV still gets their fees........

If all else fails, purchase the components separately, take the photos, put them together and reg the car.

Like I said, just my 2 cents.
apples and oranges. Any "new" vehicle has to pass current year requirements for lighting, safety, smog, airbags etc. SB100 is specifically to provide an exception for custom/home built vehicles that replicate a vintage car and are only held to that model year standards.
