9.20.18
Letter received from PennDOT with the recap from QOA inspection. Items to address:
-I need a cover over battery cable that runs by passengers foot. Easy fix. Done
-I need a heat shield on tailpipe as it runs past fuel fill tube. Easy fix.
-I need better visibility to side markers and reflectors. Going to just buy 4 more markers with built in reflectors and mount them on each side corner.
-Need an approved battery hold down. Hose clamp aint going to cut it. Easy fix, i have one just need to install it.
-Fender rubbed on tire at full lock over curb. Easy fix, increase ride height. Done. I have coilover suspension.
I'll go get lights here shortly and install them tonight along with battery mount and heat shield. I pretty much begged him not to make me trailer my car back to garage and im waiting to hear what he has to say about that.
to be continued...

Re: PA - Specially Constructed Vehicle title process
I'm pretty stoked. Im leaving next week so hopefully all my stuffs in the mail when i return from the beach.
I'll updated first post with pics and stuff but the moral of the story. Anyone in PA, expect to go to shop a few times, be patient. PennDOT's not out to crush dreams but they do want to protect there arses. Pay very close attention to the details in Pub 45 online, section E and K and the lighting table at the bottom for passenger vehicles.
