There in lies the rub.

I see. But, because my manufacturer provided MSO stated officially that the car is a replica of a 1965 etc, and OR used the MSO to determine how to title the car (in fact they kept it, so it's on file at the state DMV - but I have a copy of it and all the paperwork), it seems to me that's absolute proof that OR was informed BY THE MANUFACTURER of its status etc and the car therefore has a valid title.

So I could sell the car to a CA buyer, who would then be able to title and license it in CA without SB100.

What a pain in the ...... and it's coming to all of us in every state, you bet.

Thanks for all the info and advice.

There is no sense in beating a dead horse. This is my 3rd cobra I have owned.
I register my current Kirkham about the same time last year. If they would have had a problem I would gone the SB100 route. I have done it on the two previous cobra and it is not that big of a deal. Get a Number.

I bought a kirkham from florida registered as a 65. Was built in 2005 and had to do sb100. Still in process as we speak.

You're better off going through the SB100 process. One of these days, somebody in the AG's office is going to get a hair up their axx and decide the rules have changed. You'll be 100% legal.
