Re: Engine Swaps vs Smog Laws
 

Thanks. I've been looking out for a desert buggy and
this one seems to fill the bill. It's a bit weird
buying a vehicle sight unseen on Ebay but the seller
seems to be an honest person and the description fits
my wants for the most part. Time will tell if the risk
was worth it or not...

You can have crap falling off your vehicle here in Nevada too
as long as it'll pass the smog test...

Re: Engine Swaps vs Smog Laws
 

Colorado just struck back at that one - upped the fine for discarding
human waste on the right of way to something like $500.

As for the safety inspection, I have mixed emotions. When I was a
Cadet here, I would help my future FIL do inspections in his gargage.
I came to the conclusion that inspecting tires and such once (even
twice) a year really didn't make much difference - needs to be done
MUCH more often than that to be effective - say, every time you get
in?? Same thing for brakes - they would wait until inspection time
rather than keeping on top of it on a continuing basis. Since
Colorado dropped the safety inspections something like 30 years ago
statistics provided by the state pretty well back up the move.

I could see a one-time requirement for a new registration - start with
a clean slate on an unknown vehicle - but it's usually too little, too
late after that. The Colorado troopers are pretty good about stopping
bad tires and obvious defects - gives them a good excuse to sniff and
snoop.
