Emission sticker on a '72?, Help... Options

[mgphoto]

I moved from Florida to California in 1989, the car was inspected by CHP, showed Florida title, registration, officer just looked at the vin. I had to have the car smog checked for several years before it was no longer necessary.
I also have a 1972, I will take a photo of the emissions sticker later today.

If you can get a good straight on pic, get some of that sticker printing paper. Sticky on the back. I got it at office max. And just print one and stick it on. You can always get the foil one later.

Auto Atlanta has years 73-76 maybe they can source a 72.

just stick the AA repro 73 sticker on.
it looks like the same sticker.
labels don't have a date on them.


as if the inspector would know.
probably some box he has to check on a form that some clean air politician,
instructing some hapless bureaucrat, has decided is an absolute necessity of proper process to ensure the states C02 tonnage will meet the obligations of the kyoto treaty in 2030. if its like here - then anything govt. requires is bound to be straight out of the mind of a three thumbed four eyed certified f$%k wit thinking they are going to stop the ross ice shelf from slipping into the southern ocean before they manage to sell their holiday house 5 feet from the beach.

apologies @clayperrine
i was trying to stay this side of the thin blue line.

i offered the outburst as the emission sticker puzzle in california arises as a story hits the newspapers down here - namely that the govt. severely underestimated tonnage of CO2 produced by vehicles in australia over the last decade.
apparently the bureaucrats neglected to factor in the popularity of the SUV boom!
they had assumed aussies were driving kias and "ford escorts" when they weren't.
i was attempting to describe the public servant sphere of govt. in the good old "bbc - yes minister" mode and not stray into the other sphere. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
