It will pass per the new Cal regulation for 35 years or older insured as collectible. All it has to do is pass the sniff test and make sure there are no gas leaks..

CP from another post on the forum.

Arnold got rid of this law...
Does my vehicle qualify for a smog exemption?

Smog inspections are required unless your vehicle is:
• Hybrid
• Gasoline powered 1975 year model or older
• Diesel powered 1997 year model and older or with a Gross Vehicle Weight rating (GVWR) of more than 14,000 lbs
• Electric
• Natural gas powered with a GVWR rating of more than 14,000 lbs.
• Motorcycle

I googled this and it is very confusing, many easy outs for the DMV and smog tech. The car should not pass the sniff test as it has no air pump or catalytic convertor. I called a local smog station and he is not aware of this being approved.

DMV has no form to exempt it upon proof of Historical Insurance.....

I'm lost.....

If you get get, borrow by some means the original equipment to get it smogged once then determine which zip codes do not require biannual smog checks (rural areas) by going here...

Once smogged
Drive to that rural location
Take out a PO Box
Inform the DMV of the address change for that vehicle

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Was governor when the change was made in 2004, what a piece of crap I thought he was a car guy.

vanvettman

After he became govenator it was all down hill from there! What a piece of work a big dummy that never could learn to speak properly. The California public is even dumber than he is by electing him into office. Now we have the brown clown I think we should flush it.
