Having seen a few race cars lately, most notably the one featured in Excellence (Sept), I am curious when the 'street legal' line is crossed. What is the most significant modification that would make a car no longer street legal?
Thanks, Bob |

One of my customers was a cop and he often spoke of his "fuch book". he could harrass people for:
loose sheet metal or bumpers cracked lenses or glass ANY stickers on the windows fluffy toys on the back dash any loose items on the drivers side floor hoods tied down tire tread depth at the EDGE of the tire on and on... He basically said EVERY car on the road he could find something to write a ticket for. |
