Hi Doug,
I started the registration process last year about this time.

I went in to the Walnut Creek DMV office and told them I wanted to register my specially constructed vehicle on Jan. 2nd of this year but I wanted to be able to drive it around so that I could do the brake and Light inspectoin as well as any needed trips to prepare the car for legal registration (allignment, etc.).
I paid the fee based upon all the receipts that I had and they gave me a 90 day temp permit. This got me through the summer and most of the fall driving around legally.

On Jan 2nd, I took everything back to DMV for my SB100 ordeal.
They gave me another 90 day temp permit.

After getting that, it was off to the CHP and then BAR referree and back to DMV for plates.

This seems to work very well because the people make sure that you have all the proper forms and have filled them out properly.

This is much better done on a nice summer day rather than sitting there on Jan 2nd, sweating out the number lottery.

Good Luck and welcome aboard.

Jim
