Not Ranked
Excerpt from SB 1073, note the wording of the Bill applies to the model year, not the make which remains as " Composite " . The emissions exemption passed prior to 2009 specifically mentions Composite as the qualifier.
RE: Senate Bill 1073: AN ACT MAKING REVISIONS TO STATUTES CONCERNING THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES,
Sec. 33. Subsection (b) of section 14-16a of the general statutes is repealed and the following is substituted in lieu thereof (Effective October 1, 2009):
Includes: " The model year designation for the purpose of registration of a modified antique motor vehicle or a composite motor vehicle shall be the model year that the body of such vehicle most closely resembles "
From a discussion earlier this week with a DMV official, the sole purpose was to seek clarification of the above changes.
* Changes to the DMV web site are still in process, no specific date as to when the changes will be completed
* Web site not being updated does not impact the effective date of 10-1-09 for SB 1073 Sec 33 as mentioned above
* Inspection Lane & Administrative personnel are aware of the changes
* Make remains as a Composite, which still allows for the emission exemption
* Model, for Cobra kit cars/replicas, will be Cobra
* Year can be either 1965 or 1966. Owner needs to include as documentation a picture of an original, i.e., " Model year that the body of such vehicle most closely resembles." While the Cobra body is obvious to most people, some might not recognize other makes/year built as a kit/replica
* Change in model year designation is not retroactive, applies only if registered 10-1-09 or later.
