Ron...I appreciate your comments....I know that the original law certainly did potentially restrict all of our freedom to drive a classic, restored, kit or vintage "age" car. I personally led a charge against the bill. There were many others who had much more influence than I, who pressed very hard, including Jay Leno and Neil Young......

That said, I review, intrepret and press laws for a living and I looked at this one very hard. My belief at this moment is that the Bill by Flores was changed to be something entirely different. This is exactly the comments I have received from state legislators. At this moment, SB-708 is about curbing cars which emit gross exhaust emissions, meaning smoking cars. This has been in the works for quite awhile and it is not surprising that it came to be, only how it came to be.

The current status is that there are questions about the amount of some of the fines being imposed. There is a hearing scheduled to look at these issues. The bill should then head over to the Gov's office for signature. I don't yet know what the Gov's position is on this.

Unless someone pulls a rabbit out of the hat at the last minute, we should not see this impacting us. No offense intended Ron, but I don't think we need to worry about a sucker punch at this time....BUT...I encourage you to follow the link often to see if there are other changes....I am trying to do the same, but extremely busy with my business now......

Anyways,......bills such as this one need people like you to bring them to the attention of everyone....Only as a group voice can we express the will of proponents of our cars.....

Cheers,

Mike
