Tom,it's my understanding that you can't really even begin the process without all your receipts for everything necessary to make this a complete car.The"use" tax is based on this(equivalent to sales tax),and is collected at the time(or before)the SB100 number is issued.Superformance offers a great package price on all items necessary to make this a complete car,except the engine,and they can usually refer you to someone reputable for that.There is also you friendly local Ford dealer for a crate engine as well.The only reason I mention these options is that it appears that time is of the essence if you are going to meet the January('04) target.The car doesn't have to be running,only having all parts purchased with receipts.DMV knows your car will probably come in between $50k-$65k,so don't even think about leaving out anything.My car is still about 1.5years away,and I am not looking forward to this step,but I have been through it before.I hope this helps,and I'm sure others will soon be checking in with their experiences as well.Also,your insurance company may not cover your car until it is complete-better check on that one!
