I'm in Mass and this state used CA for their model, both for emmisions and titling/registrations. Getting the VIN was a bit worrisome at times but the real hassle was getting the title resolved. Seems the title division wanted things one way and the registrar wanted things a different way. So I got stuck in the middle with a car that I was able to register but couldn't get an inspection sticker as the computer program they use would lock out the inspector as soon as the title number was entered.

Took about 4 months before they resolved their issues and all's well now. Best part for me was I get through before the new rules came into effect so it's exempt from emmisions and won't need the oem certifications.

I'm looking forward to your interior updates, if it's half as nice as the rest of the build, it'll be one sweet ride!
