It is not illegal if you follow the laws in CA to register it in CA.
The problem occurs when people fill out the CA paperwork, and where it says "Year", then enter 1965. CA does not recognize a Specially Constructed Vehicle built in 2006 (for example) as a 1965 model year. By entering 1965 as the model year on the CA paperwork, per current CA law, this is considered fraud. Per CA law, the model year is the year of build.
Of course, we can all argue whether the current laws suck or not, or if more SB100 Sequence Numbers should be provided, or whether CA should recognize any title from any state at face value, blah, blah, blah, but today we have the laws that we have, and, as everyone can tell from this thread, they are being enforced by the AG's office as they are, until such time that they are changed.
