I had a Superformance 427, bought new from Dynamic. Went to the license bureau and there was no hassle had all my paperwork from SPF and the engine builder/installer. Registered as a 2XXX , paid the sales and misc. license fees(OUCH!), walked out the door with plates and registration.

No inspection was required, no smog checks or anything. I live in Kitsap county.
My NAF FIA was similar, registered as a NAF Cobra replica. Just transfered title from Illinois, though I did need to get a safety inspection, again no hassle.

Welcome--those SPF coupes are awesome, I was seriously thinking of buying one last year when I sold my roadster, but after doing the number crunch I couldn't justify close to 90K invested by the time I figured in the car cost, a quality engine/transmission build, insurance, taxes and licensing fees.
One hint if you've been checking them out at Park Place, you probably might get a better deal from Dynamic in Reno--PP is very "proud" of their cars and they don't seem to want to deal much and they were way overpriced for the exact SPF compared to Dynamic when I bought mine a few years ago fwiw
