I kinda wonder if Cobra replicas with FE's and other polluting engines will become extinct now. CA could/will update their SB100/SPCNS program to follow the Federal law and go one step further and outlaw polluting engines in our Cobra replicas. But if they're green engines, CA may lift the 500 exemption limit each year.
I'm not sure what the new law means for enthusiasts building more-accurate replicas. Maybe CA will continue the SB100/SPCNS program for exhaust-belching engines. |

To me, belching a little Sunoco or VP fuel on a Saturday or Sunday is so minuscule compared to the bigger picture.:rolleyes: Leave me alone, and get off my lawn!:LOL::LOL: |
Buzz,
I normally don't jump to the conspiracy side of things, but California is filled to the brim with overzealous environmentalists. There are groups of environmentalists that work full-time to sue city, county, and the state on every possible action. The result is that rather than go to court, the agency submits to a cash settlement. The environmentalists take that cash to continue to fill their coffers and sue again and again and continue to get awarded settlements. Example - our town approved a shopping center on property that was formerly a high school. Environmentalists sued on some basis (I've forgotten the reason). The town caved and gave them $100,000. It got built, but it was delayed for a long time. Example - the state highway in town was being widened and additional lanes were added to a bridge. The state put up netting on the underside of the bridge to prevent birds from nesting so they would not get hurt during construction per previous agreements with the environmentalists from previous bridge building. The environmentalists sued them for putting up the netting. On and on it goes to a level of insanity. Just the fact that the legislation is coming up will get the attention of some environmentalist and who knows what will happen. |

Of course, you might fix your problems in the next election cycle by NOT voting for any lawyers or for people who are up for reelection. Didn't Jegs stop shipping crate engines to CA a few years ago? |

Personally, I really like clean air and our CA air is cleaner. Where's that "kiss my bare butt" emoji when you need it. :LOL:

No revolution needed in my neighborhood. We have the undefeated and defending champion Golden State Warriors, the 3-time World Series Champion SF Giants, uh, er, and some friggin' team that calls themselves the San Francisco 49ers, but they're definitely imposters. That's the revolution we need. Get rid of the Yorks as owners of the 49ers. ;):) But I digress. No one is coming for your Cobra, Bernica. Down boy. :p |

Yup! Very cleaned up and many places much worse in this country.

Also to qualify the vehicle must be a licensed product. We will have to see who the "Cobra" must be licensed from before making any decisions there. |
