For those of you not well versed in Peter Egan literature, he arranged
for Road & Track magazine to acquire one of the first Westfield XI
kits, complete with Spridget drivetrain, so that he and the R&T crew
could scramble to assemble it in 3 weeks or so and then he and Barbara
drove it from LA to Elkhart Lake to see the June Sprints. Back then it
was not an issue to build one in California...

Still not a problem with the SB100 bill. A few years ago, a California
politician got annoyed as he had problems with the DMV when he tried to
register his Cobra replica, so he had this SB100 bill passed. Only problem
is that a very limited number of these are available each year, and they are
gone very quickly! Many so-called "1962 (or 1963, or 1967 etc) Lotus seven
Replica" have been registered that way, and do not required emission
testing.
If the vehicle is a pre-1976 model, Kit car or not, it is emission exempt
in CA, and no other testing is required.
