NJ Inspection and Registration

[RAO-3]

My NJ road worthiness inspection was today and thought I would share my experience.

Well I did make it up to Morristown for the inspection on time, and they had the car inside for an hour. They failed me for not having 2 throttle return springs on the same side of the carburetor - I had one one one side, and one on the other side. Also for not having a visible enough VIN location and finally for not having a passenger side roll bar. (Patrick should enjoy that one!) They did tell me that if I came back in the morning, they would re-examine the car rather than have me make another appointment. So I went to an auto parts store and bought some tools (I hadn't brought any with me) and a spring. I removed the passenger seat, installed a second spring on the same side and used a screwdriver to etch the vin number in a more visible location. Brought it back there and they passed it. I then drove down to Trenton, finished all the paperwork and got my plates.

So what do you think - will it snow this weekend?

I plan to be at the Cobra Revolution on the 5th.
