>>In Vermont, land of tree huggers and private rights, the emmissions
test for
a car up through 1996 consists of checking for a gas cap rather than a
trusty old rag and looking for exhaust leaks. 1996 and newer cars are
required to be checked for OBD II compliance (pluging into a computer
for
diagnostic info). No tailpipe sniffing here...maybe you should just
sell me
that old polluter.....:)
But there aren't any old cars in New England! Having grown up in
Michigan and NH, I had no idea what that meant. There are so many
60's and 70's hundred dollar beaters on the west coast. These cars
are simply cheap transport used as daily drivers, not Sunday cruisers
owned by a vintage enthusiasts. There's a little more reason to smog
old cars putting on these many cumulative miles. Although Portland
has a 25 year rule, I've been meaning to visit the DMV just to help me
tune the engine.
