Not Ranked
I hope that all of you who have gotten registered under SB-100 get to keep your cars. But if the so called vague at best statement that any engine or car that can't be reasonable fitted for equipment applies to them then it certainly would have to apply to pre 1966 cars as none of them were built to accomodate any smog equipment, there is none made for them, and many of those engines would not have a way to install it. It would cost me thousands that I don't have to try and make my 1965 Comet meet these requirements and there is no emissions equipment for it on the market anyway. And if there was, the engine would have to be modified to try and accept it. And what about all the high performance cars in the 60s that could never in no way meet theres asinine requirements. After consulting at length with people in Sacramento who were there talking to Seantors and Assemblymen trying to get them to vote no on this bill, the concensus was that the bill is a done thing and that it will make the SB-100 registered cars be brought up to all others for fear of lawsuites if they don't. This bill should have been stopped before it was read into the assembly and they had the votes to pass it. As they take away our rights one by one it is this type of thing that will eventually lead to no one in this state being able to own land, vote, or do anything not regulated by the Emperor and his staff of Jesters. Just go look at the whole 700 series of bills that are coming up for vote. Do NOT think for a second that they can't do anything they want. They have been doing it for years by nibbling away at rights until they now consider themselves beyond any answering to the people for anything. I really do hope the AB-100 cars will be left alone as they will be the only Cobras allowed in Calif. Even the originals can't be registered unless their owners have enough money to purchase an exemption from the state.
