I bought my car in 2000 as the 3rd owner, titled as a 1964 Ford. After much thought I went to DMV and told them I thought my car was titled wrong. The first clerk said don't worry about it, your fees are cheeper that way!!!!! So I thought about it overnight and went back the next day and talked to a different clerk. I told her about my title and wanting to do the SB100. She said fine I've never done one so lets try it. She spent a real 30 minutes on the phone to Sacramento and it took another hour of paperwork. I never needed my receipts, just signed a declaration as to the car value. Still did all the inspections. It was fairly simple because I was already titled. It took a couple of months because I tried to do the inspections out of order. Like everyone has stated, it depends on who you talk to at DMV.
