Just received my FINAL/REAL California registration!! I started it in September (so I could pick up the car in Octorber), and through visits to the CHP, BAR and DMV--including holidays, vacations, car down, etc--the real deal finally showed up yesterday!!
I registered it under California SB100 and it came out as a 2002 year, and make SPCNS (specially constructed vehicle).
I got the license plate CSX4285 and will affix the stickers this week when I pick up the car (down with a burnt clutch
)
So, the process works, but it can be time consuming--though the DMV kept issuing me temporarty operating certs so I could keep on the road
!!
