For all the people wanting inspection "hookups"

I walk in $40 plus inspection. They walk in write sticker and I leave.

Wait till next year

Fuck inspections

I used to love failing cars. Now, do not care.

Biggest problem with antique tags is your only supposed to drive to car shows, club meetings etc. A cop that is feeling grouchy can hassle the crap out of you if he wants to. Why give them more ammo?

This! I have been hassled in the 52 about it

[LS WHAT ??]

This is what your asking the inspectors to risk.

1988 fox bodies and older can have antique tags now and you don't have to worry about inspections at all.

Sure they can. But the state can take the car from the person that purchased the inspection also. Do you want to risk losing your car because you took your cats off or have limo tint and you took your car to your "hookup"? Not worth it to me. I haven't heard of them actually doing it but they can if they want.

I have no worries about my brand new, stock car. It's been a really long time since I "purchased" an inspection sticker.

That was a generic you, not necessarily you in particular.

You should have referred him to go and get antique tags for it.

I just wanted him out of my shop! My state inspector detector meter was pegged.

[4eyedwillie]

So 4eyed, you will not hook us up?

On a public forum? Absolutely not! I'm a by the book guy....I have a real aversion to meeting bubba and dropping the soap!

It could have been anything. Tint, HID bulbs in a non hid housing, missing lugnuts. I had a guy come in yesterday and say in front of another customer "I've got a 85 Bronco I need to get inspected but the catalytic converter is jacked up. You don't look at those on a safety inspection do you?
Me "1984 and up has to have a cat, we don't check if it works but it has to be there"
Him But it's just a safety inspection how close do you look?
Me I look at everything ( WTF else am I gonna say?)
Some people are clueless.

Not to mention this could very well be an undercover "emissions cop".
