Okay, this one is just conjecture guys and gals. On thinking about all this smog stuff here in CA, and being rather bummed that you can't do a hell of a lot to a later than 1976 car as far as mods go, and that we may have to be doing annual smogs in the future - I relised that there were 76 Alfetta GTs. This is the cut off date for cars required to pass smog in CA, so in regards to vehicle registration what comes in the mail? just the renewal form that says pay us for another year right?
So, couldn't one take a 76 GT and do whatever they want under the hood, because unless an officer of the law asks you to pop the hood, there would never be a way for the state to know what really was under the hood, right? And heck if you kept it pretty believable under the hood like just one turbo even a police officer would think that's the way it should be right?
Of course the rust issue would be a big one, not to mention all the money you'd have to throw at it, but the idea has my wheels spinning.
