If the bumpers were backdated on a 76, would that create an inspection passing problem? Also, if the FI is removed on a 71, would that create an inspection passing problem? I'll take what anyone knows for any state, but since i live in NJ, info for this state would be particularily useful.

In California, the only thing thats inspected is the emmisions. The '71 is exempt from smog inspection and up to '74. Here there's a rolling 30 year exemption (as long as the car is 30 or more years, it is exempt from inspection).

I would think that a government agency would have a website that might be able to answer those questions. If not go to one of the inspection stations and ask them if there is regulation aganist backdating the bumpers.

QUOTE(boxstr @ Dec 2 2003, 09:37 PM) I would think that a government agency would have a website that might be able to answer those questions. CCLINOREGON Good luck with the government website. The DMV website sucks, cause you really have to read past the bs and sometimes double talk from the information given in them. Boxstr is correct about going to an inspection facility and asking questions directly. |

the DMV will not know what bumpers your suppose to have in NJ. Also, the emmissions are based upon what they were for that year. i.e. 76 car goes by 76 emmission standards. Mine is a 75 and it passed with the air pump removed.

Thanks for the help, I guess I'll ask at an inspection station.
