So to follow the progressions, other jurisdictions may not have the restriction that CA places on the power train/vehicle assembly. Others besides CA do as well. However, said vehicle will also likely never be licensable in those places that do place restrictions. That was as far as I went since I could sense it was sensitive topic. I'll wager with pretty high odds that vehicles will find their way on the streets in some places. I can pretty much guess at places I wouldn't even try and I can also guess a few places where you might have a shot. But if you want a guarantee, buy a muffler.

Then somehow, they'll have to navigate around the Federal laws regarding the sales of completed cars that do not meet 2015 emission and safety standards. I can't wait to see that and I sure hope the first owner to register his or her Resurrection Cobra will it post it here.

Sorry to disagree with you on this one, but it is true,none of these cars will meet any kind of federal mandates on crash worthiness and emissions,so therefore they can not legally be licensed and driven on the road,yes,in all 50 states!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Will some slip thru the cracks at a local DMV office, yes likely,would I want to be caught driving one on the road,heck no.......

You can bet next months rent,all 50 states will be sent some kind of "memo" and if/when someone tries to license one, a red flag will appear on a computer screen somewhere....
