Not Ranked
Here are a few random thoughts in no particular order.
1) Setup a few DMV offices to be trained on the SB100 proceedure. I see no reason why every office should deal with this once a year. People already gravitate to the more knowledagable sites (for example Santa Clara here in the south bay region).
2) More numbers.
3) Better definition of what they are for, and what they are not for. Why would someone with a '72 VW based dune buggy need one? But they can use one if they want. Is it for any kit car, or just kits that resemble vehicles that would be smog exampt based on their year, 65 cobra vs. 85 Fierro turned Ferrari w/350 chevy
4) This may be unpopular, and nothing personal to those it would impact but I don't like the idea that you can get one, do nothing with your car for years, and then whenever you get around to it use your sequence number. It seems to me that one full year or heck even 2 to complete your car should be enough. After that the number goes back into the pool of available numbers. Alternatively and probably even less popular you could need to get it as far as the CHP inspection before you could apply for SB100 status. If there was not so few numbers this seems like it wouldnt be a problem, go get your number when your car is ready.
Thats all I can think of off the top of my head.
