The problem is that the folks who are at the low end of the income scale are driving the older cars as they are cheaper to buy and are cars that can be used up. Hence they are putting out smog, therefore the state has mandated the cars be smogged. Someone screwed up a good deal when they pulled the sliding scale smog checks. Our '76 spider with the air pump only sails through smog checks as it was a 49 state car when we had both CA and 49 state cars for a while.
