Hi,
I recently failed my emissions test during inspection. I've done some fuel injection work on the car and expected to go back and pass. That didn't happen, even though i found a problem and fixed it i'm still not passing.
I have 2 choices, i can spend more money then i bought the car for trying to fix the emissions or I could just register it collector.
In NJ it used to be really simplem, you went to the DMV and told them you were registering as a collector, they gave you a piece of paper. Then you went to a inspection station, they took an odometer reading and sent you on your way.
Now they've changed the whole process and made it a pain in the butt. You have to fill out this form (not a problem), you have to take 5 pictures of the vehicle from various angles (annoying but not a big deal), proof of collectors insurance (you had to do this before too), and finally you have to submit evidence that the car is in limited quantity.
To prove that its in limited quantity, you have to provide evidence from either the manufacturer, or a recognized car club (on letterhead, or a collector organization that the vehicle was produced in limited quantity or that a limited quantity still exist. What constitues a limited quantity? which source should i use?
any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
Bob
