Mine wasnt complete at all. This is just to pay the money and get a number, the inspection comes later when you finish it. Some DMV employees arent up on the law but if you take with you your reciepts for the big items and serial #s off the frame or anything else that will identify your car you have a good start. There were some good threads here on CC about Sb100s and how its all done. I started by going to the DMV a week before the SB100 date. Its a good thing that I did they sent me home for more info etc and it took some time for the DMV manager to get up to speed. She didnt think that you could get a SB100# without the car being finished so it took some coaxing. This coming year should be more frenzied than the last two or three. It only took about 4 hours to issue all 500 #s this last year, the year before it was 8 hours and the year before that it was a day and a 1/2 so its getting alot more competative. Just make sure you have all your stuff and youve gone through the preliminary steps before that date and above all make sure you get in line an hour before opening time so that you can get processed and the DMV people can start calling the main office for the #. I did and it still took about 1 1/2 hours to get through to Sacramento. I did mine in Whittier, Ive heard there are better DMVs for this but I figuired that they may filled up with Rodders. Some guys drive to Sacramento the day before and camp out at the main branch. I never felt the need for that but it may be coming to that. Good luck and go search for the threads on the SB100, then go to the Ca. DMV website and download all their info on the SB100 or as its called Contructed Vehicles. Michael
