blykins:

Do you have something in particular that needs to be identified?

CT DMV, CT Emissions, and CT EPA have revised the emissions exemption for kit/replica cars as of August 1st indicating the emission systems/hardware must still be installed even though the actual emission testing will still be exempted. This requirement has been verified.

In 2007 the CT General Assembly passed a bill exempting all Composites, CT designation for replicas and kit cars, from the emission testing phase. At the time there was not any reference to the emission systems/hardware, just exempting the testing.....a classic Catch 22 situation

For new registrations & inspections after August 1, the owner needs to show to the inspector documented ( not defined ) proof on the engine block year. From 1966 and later the inspector will verify the emissions hardware is installed.

While I am OK, there are others that are progressing with their builds or have contracted for a turn key supplier and the vehicle is not yet registered, no grandfather clauses or interim grace period

Challenge will be to identify a " documented proof " source which can be shown to the inspector and accepted.
