Seems CA may actually be simpler for registration under SB100 than Nevada and it's several classifications.
NV classifications seem to lean heavily toward street-rods and hot-rods.
Asking NV-DMV is an exercise in frustration, they like to cite "Rules" that they cannot state an actual statute for.
A good example would be the stated claim that MC engines are illegal for a car build in NV.
I have relatives in CA and the Tahoe DMV is not
too far away.
The question arises, is SB100 only for "Replica" builds, and if so, how faithful must that replica be?
Is there a list of accepted replicas, and anything not on the list is ineligible?
One of my builds is more of a street driven Super Vee than anything else, but could I call it a Locost/Lotus, even though it will be mid-engine?
And the Dio Tipo, it's a replica of the Ambro Special sports racer.
Cobra replica's seem to get special consideration, the Dio is no less a racing replica, just not so well known.
Then there is the Tatum, a continuation car, at least if it is VW powered.
I'm about to finally have a shop of my own ands some funding, so these questions are now more urgent than before.
Looking at DMV links is remarkably
not informative when not doing the same builds as the majority.
