My Recent Experience with SB100 & Bringing a Used Cobra into California

[51astro456]

I just got a call that my SB100 was approved!!!!!...no BAR Referee appointment available for 3 weeks though...now scheduled for 6 June. This should be the one where I get the magical white BAR sticker...and paperwork that I then need to take back to the DMV to complete the process and get plates.

Some recommendations for anyone looking to buy a used Cobra:

- Get all of the paperwork from the previous owner, including the title, a copy of the MSO and detailed receipts of the chassis and engine/transmission. If there are not separate receipts for the chassis and engine/transmission, then there might be an issue. (or if they don't have this paperwork)

- Anytime paperwork needs to go back to the DMV, or if you are waiting for your SB100 Sequence# certificate, add at least a week or two of wait time.

More to follow once I complete the process!!!
