You appear out of the blue, new to this forum, offering a solution to what every builder in California has worried about since the day they decided to build/buy a Cobra.

My concern is the legitimacy of the eBay listing and you posting it.

Be the first on your block to have the Feds knocking on your door. I think I'll pass on this fine opportunity.

Opnydr, how do you know this 'friend'?

Hmmm, I guess someone should pull about a 100 and 'market' them. While it sounds fishy (not to mention unethical) it might be legal.

It's pure BS. They are non transferrable and you must provide an MSO for a new registration or current Title for an existing car to be tranfered. Currently if you want to have an existing, titled car get an SB100 number assigned you must first apply at DMV then go to CHP for VIN verification prior to the SB100 request being input to the DMV system. Once assigned they cannot be transferred to another vehicle.

Call your local DMV, or Sacramento, and ask how you would go about the process if you were building your own car from scratch- they will tell you, as they told me, to fill out the paperwork with your phone number as the VIN until CHP assigns you one.

You need not trust my words, but make a phone call before you write a reply in which you bash somebody’s credibility.

Please call Robert Morgester, he is very interested in meeting you to understand your thought process.

2) There are possible ways that the DMV may transfer the title for you (I will look further into this).
3) As far as he is aware, the title follows ANY portion of the car to which it was assigned. This means that if you started the build process and got a number, the number follows those parts (he told me to check with DMV on this, and I will).
4) The transaction my friend was trying to offer posed no legal problems that he was aware of.


I greatly thank you for his information; it further solidified my knowledge of this process.


He also provided great advice for other ways to go about the registration process. If there are people out there that need information, I would highly recommend calling him; he is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the process.

As a side note, the original purchaser of the Ebay posted SB100 decided to finish his car this year, so he kept the number (though after speaking with Robert, I may be interested in getting rid of mine and going about the process in another way. While I’d hate for the last sentence to start another I know more about the process than you battle, I thought it was funny, so please take it as a joke).

Just to back up this statement, I've sent off a personal message to Mr Morgester asking him to check into your statement, your auction, and this thread here on Club Cobra. I'm sure if this new user is on the up and up, he won't mind me taking precautions before sending a friend in his direction.

BEWARE

This is pure BS. You can not get a SB100 without a MSO, or a Bill of Sale for a Pre-owned replica. SB100 is assigned to a CAR, not to a person or phone number and it is not transferable to another car. It stays with the same car forever! Geez, I can't believe what people will try here.

If you would like me to send you the complete standards on SB100 and SB1578, let me know. Or leave me a number so I can have someone in Sacramento give u a call to explain that you are absolutely and positively wrong.

Is your name Darren? I was in line Tuesday morning with a Darren who has a sequence number from 2006 that he did not use and getting another one for a kirkham and wanted to know how he could get the 2006 SB100 transfered to another vehicle. He has several other suspicious questions, too.

ffrcobra_65 - what office?

[pgermond]

Guys - I'm checking out on this topic..... the ebay listing has been canceled, the law has been clearly stated - multiple times, and the fact is those who cheat get fined/jailed, i.e. Boyd & company, Titles Unlimited, and so on.
