Allen......

Keep pushing ahead! I spent the last 6-months falling on deaf ears with everyone I came in contact with. The only person I did not write to was Arnold. I was issued a "Notice of Refusal" from the DMV because it was a turn-key built by Shelby, and finalized by one of their dealers. Two separate companies involved, and they refused to allow the registration of my vehicle within this state.

The last person I spoke with from Chon's department advised me to look into filing a lawsuit against the state with as many supporters as possible to change the law. Pretty sad when it has to come to this, as this could take several years and lots of cash along the way.

You have my full support, and would gladly join you in any effort or ideas you may have at this point to give the DMV an immediate wake up call, and place all the attention and focus on California's current laws. They are out of date, out of touch, and are set up to drive away revenues in a state that is looking for ways to add more revenues to their budget.

The issue that really makes no sense to me, is that I can take my vehicle and register it in the other 49 states without the hassles this state has put forward. They truly need to wake up, and get with the rest of the country. At their continued direction and pace, they will drive many car enthusiasts out of California. Reminds me of the old business story as to how companies spend money and try to encourage customers to try their product..though forget the customer once their onboard. The customers becomes disastified with some troubled experiences, and eventualy leave. Then they spend millions trying to get the customers back. Point is they have thousands of customers now but not for long, so what they do or don't do will directly affect the CA DMV and the state in a big way. I hope their listening clearly, and with both eyes wide open!

Drop me an email if I can help in any way!
