In 1995, they were a lot less strict and they let lots of "incorrect" registrations slip by. I don't think the sb100 exemption was even available then, so everyone, in order to avoid smogging their engines, claimed that the year of their kits was pre 1967. Due to the budget problems, these registrations are seen as a form of additional revenue and the DMV is looking for them. You don't want to be turned into an "example".

If you have doubt, go down to DMV and do a "what if" scenerio. Pretend you are considering buying a car like yours and see what they tell you. Make sure you talk to someone that has half a brain, or you will get the wrong answer,
