Eliminate politics,make all 50 states univeral.Be done with it.We are working offhand rules in 66 California.They stack on a quickly based in 1966 rule.I used to be a smog tech,this needs to be abolished,any made one standard.
HELL NO!!!! You guys still living in kommunist kali keep your sorry situation to yourselves and don't try to pass off this "universal" BS on us freedom loving people living in free states. Ouit here in Alabama we have NO smog checks, NO vehicle inspections (sorry Tejas), and registering a car earlier than 1975 is as easy as presenting the bill of sale to the tag people.
Back in 1978-1979 I had a 1970 Triumph Spitfire. It had a single Stromberg carb and because the butterfly shaft was loose in the carb housing it would not pass smog and I had to drive it for 2 years on a 90 day temp registration. If it had been a 1969 with dual Bing carbs (more power, more smog) it would have been OK.
I keep hearing rumblings about the obomites wanting to come out with this "universal" registration criteria which to me is a way to usurp more states rights and force more federal control over our lives. Screw that.
Hell, for that matter screw the obomites and their power grabbing ways. Stay the h away from my old hotrod and the way I get it street legal.
