Turk & Michael,
One thing we didn't address is SB-1578 which also uses the same 500 numbers. That is to allow previously registered cars from out of state or for an owner to apply for a different model year determination in a subsequent calendar year subject to the 500-vehicle annual limit. This is what they used when they reserved the 100 numbers last year for people whose titles had been pulled. The rest of the process is the same as for a new vehicle, but with so many trying to get their titles back, the 500 numbers becomes a very small amount.
Michael,
The bill to repeal the 30 year roll back from extending each year was repealed last year. Now we are stuck with 1974 and earlier period. A question. If you have a 1964 engine in your car and registered it by that, what kind of emissions testing could they do as there were none then? What happenes every 2 years when you had to have a smog check, as they would have no smog limits for a pre 1966 engine, and if it is registered by the engine year that is what they should have to test for, not the year of the frame if I understood you correctly. If you had a 1964 block for example, just what did they do when you had to have the smog test as there were no 1964 smog regulations.
