I have an appointment on the 30th with the Washington State Patrol to get them to sign off saying it's a Shelby then the DMV will do it. The WSP officer that called me to set up the appointment after I had left a msg had gotten on the net, done research, knew that 87's were Shelby Lancers and that in 88 and 89 there was the Dodge Lancer Shelby so my hopes are up that all will go well.

Very interesting info. Was told by the DMV that I had a choice of my SL being registered as a kit car or Dodge Lancer, because they look at who manufactured the car. My car was registered as a Shelby Lancer in Iowa, which was on the title I showed them.
All went great! I had a ton of info on the car prepared to show it all to them. The officer came out, looked at my title where I bought the car from (NV) and then read the sticker Shelby placed inside the drivers door, made sure my current info was correct and went inside for 5-10 minutes. He didn't look at any of the info I had. He did have printouts from Wikipedia about the car though in his hand I saw. He came back out with another officer and they both looked at the back of the car, and then handed me a piece of paperwork that stated what the vin said about being a Lancer ES but then below that said to change it to Shelby Lancer. This weekend I got the new title in the mail and the Make is Shelby and model is Lancer on it so I'm stoked it's now completely official.
Nice success story!
