    Registering an 818

    Question:

    When restoring vehicles my understanding was emissions requirements typically insist the engine must be newer than the vin date of the chassis. As no 818 is going to qualify, how will these be registered?

    FFR has made a business out of Roadsters using Mustang, and GTMs using Corvette parts. Do kits have different requirements then restorations? Does each state have radically different standards?

    How does it work?

    Take a look here (http://www.bipac.net/page.asp?conten...olbox&g=SEMAGA) for your State. It might not be 100% complete, but it should be close enough to give you an accurate idea of the process.

    Ahhh, I should have searched. Yes, it's best for everyone if everything is in one place.
