I went through this process last fall. Got the vehicle designation on my registration changed from Aurora ('80s Canadian mfr) to "SPCN." Specially Constructed Vehicles qualify for the SB100. DMV does that.

I had my nose on DMV's glass door at 7:30AM Monday Jan 3. I had gone in earlier that week and rehearsed the process with a DMV clerk who said he'd be working that morning. When they opened at 8AM, he got on the phone to Sacto, and within 15 minutes had my assigned number. 009.
