I'm Upstate, and went through the "Process" 9 years ago. It's not really hard to do, just follow their rules and you will get the car you want. NYS is one of those states that require wipers and defrost. I was able to meet those requirements by using a Speedway "clip on" T-bucket manual wipers and a 12 volt hand held marine defroster. The more (correct) information that is shared between builders, the easier the build.

This thread may be a little dated, but there is plenty of important information:
