Old thread I know.

1975 or older vehicles dont need smog.
1968 or newer need emissions.
There is a difference as Im currently learning.
Im currently trying to register a 70 gmc c10 total frame restore with 402 engine into a 72 cheyenne super. Family inheritance.
Truck is imported from Canada to California. Been a struggle fron day one. Now we are needing to pass emissions for a grey area truck that im sure wont pass. DMV has someone they call a referee who ultimately tells you hat to do or makes the decision. Anybody go through similar?
