I just went through this process last fall and don't have much to add about the process than what has previously been posted.
It seems that the processing time depends upon their workload at the DOT, but all-in-all it was not too bad. Finding an inspection station that was familiar with the MV-426 process took a little more time; I was turned away several times by inspectors who were not familiar with the forms. Believe it or not, I got the car inspected 3 blocks away at a trailer dealership which happens to be an authorized inspection station. Apparently, trailers have to go through the MV-426 process regularly.
When you take the photos of your vehicle, make sure that they are perpendicular to the side you are photographing. I've heard of applications being denied because the photos were at an angle to the vehicle.
As far as insurance is concerned, I used ANPAC and signed up for their "CHROME" policy. They were willing to cover my car from the moment it arrived at my home. Even though I didn't need the liability insurance until I completed my install, I wanted coverage in case of fire or theft. Their rates and customer service turned out to be so good that I have since switched all my vehicles to ANPAC. If you would like a contact name, email me and I will give you the information.
Have you signed up for the Cobra Revolution? I didn't have my Cobra for last year's event, but still met a lot of nice people with a lot of nice cars.
Good Luck to you....
