Having worked through Dallas County, DPS, Dallas Police Department, back to Dallas County, the Auto Theft Task Force, and back to Dallas Police Department, I finally found the answer. The Dallas Police Department will do these inspections (contrary to what they told me yesterday), for Dallas residents only, and by appointment only, with early morning time slots Tuesday through Friday. My appointment is Thursday, hope to have title stuff done and plates by end of week. For those in Dallas, the number is 214-670-5900. Thank you all for help and advice.

Thanks to all the good advise on this thread, I was able to get everything done in one morning. Inspection at 9am; registration sticker and plates on the car at 11:30. Just turned 100 miles yesterday (short trips in this 100+ degree heat). Lots of tweaks yet to do, but that's half the fun.

Congratulations! It is great to see another ERA hitting the streets in the Dallas area. Looking forward to seeing you and your car at upcoming 1st Saturday breakfasts ...

I can't wait to see it in person. We have been missing having a blue ERA around.

Thanks guys!

Question: Should the air cleaner lid face the direction as in the picture, or the other way around?
