Finally!
After 6 months and a Maylaysian vacation, our car finally arrived at Hillbank yesterday. Here are a few photos from the "hatching" with more in my gallery. Watching the unloading is not for the faint of heart! The guys at Hillbank know what they are doing and all is well. Engine and chassis should be delivered to the builder next week. Almost there!

Nice color combo! ;)
Keep us posted on the build-up. -Dean #747 |
You must be SPF 2489. Congrats! We finally got our SPF #....and the number is? 2540. They told us late November is our arrival date, and wouldn't you know it....we're going to be in Asia on the delivery date:JEKYLHYDE . Also, our engine builder is on vacation too:JEKYLHYDE .
Your car looks great! I like the pin stripe, probably worth the extra wait. Best of luck on January 2! |
Well, turns out the number is actually 2486. I'm really amazed at how different the pinstripe makes the car look. We had it parked next to another red/white car without the pinstripe and ours looks lower and wider for some reason. Everything is off to the installer next week. Hopefully, we will be driving it in a couple of weeks!

I'm located in California and was wondering what the registration process is like for a new SPF purchased through Hillbank. Do you still need to go the SB-100 route to register the car? Does Hillbank offer any assistance with getting the car registered? Thanks in advance.

Yep. Still need the SB100. They will recommend a DMV but that's it. Remember, they do not do the engine -- that is still your responsibility (although, they will be happy to talk to you about Roush.)
Call Frank at (949)900-1966. He is their new salesman and really puts the effort into customer service. |
Thanks for the info drj. Best of luck with the rest of the build and the registration process!
I just started researching the whole Cobra scene and am trying to absorb as much info as possible. Would it be correct to assume that it really doesn't matter whether I purchase a car that is registered in another state, since I would have to go through SB-100 to register a car in CA anyway? Thanks, Doug |
Be sure to research the different ways to register the Cobra. If you do it correctly, it does not need to be done through the SB100 process. There are plenty of threads on this forum that will get you started. Now is the time to be thinking about registration - not after the engine is installed.
The SPF folks pay close attention to the details - really nice cars.:) |

DRJ For the record, the SB100 deal was fairly painless -- but did take a little time. Did you say where in California? If you are anywhere near the San Fernando Valley, the folks at the DMV on Sherman Way understood SB100 well when 3 of us showed up with SPFs this last 1/2/2006 James and, Great looking car... |
