steps...
The steps leading to issuance of the SB100 for my Aurora Cobra included the CHP visually confirming engine and vehicle VIN numbers (mine was EPA and DOT compliant in 50 states when built, so it had a 17-digit VIN), and paying the DMV the licensing fees. Without VIN numbers, they need some permanent number to identify the car and the engine. You apply in January at the DMV for the SB100, and you wait. Once the SB100 number is assigned, it's not over. In 3-4 weeks you receive notification of approval of the SB100 from Sacto, and you take that to the referee for a baseline emissions test to ensure it isn't a "gross polluter." The referee then adheres your SB100 permit or "BAR Sticker" somewhere under the hood. With that in place, the DMV can release your plates and annual reg sticker.
With this BAR sticker, your registration shows "SPCN" as vehicle name, and 1960 as production date, exempting your from annual emissions testing for the life of the engine or vehicle, whichever dies first.
