If you register
your car as a classic or antique you can only legally drive it one day per week
I also believe this includes cars registered as street rods too.

So, if you have a
stock 66 SS, you can only drive it one day per week?
Thanks

Pa in starting to
make some strict changes in the way you register your cars. Street Rods,
Classics, Antiques are all allowed by law to be driven one day per week and
that is it.. This has been for a while but I have been informed they are
starting to tighten all of this up. Registering a car with a blower out of the
hood is not a problem. Getting the car inspected is though. You allowed a
maximum of 4 inches and it can not interfere with the drivers vision. I know I
turned one guy away because of this, as much as I hated too. But having a
license in my back pocket I have to protect my job and shop. The issue with
all the new lights is more of the way people are sticking the clear lens and
colored bulbs in, mainly around here would be the kids with their Honda's
etc. The last word we got direct from the State at our shop was things are
changing and they will be enforced. And that was from the guy doing the audit
on our record book. At our shop we don't see many street machines and the ones
we do see are street legal.

If the others states are like PA
, They have alot of obscure DOT law regarding vechial state
inspection.
example. in Pa for a none street
rod or colectoe Vechial plate. you can not change exhaust systems,
chang tire to mor the one size +/- orginial or change the dia of
the Steering wheel. the were having a feild day in the hight of the off
road 4X4 days with tires,bumper hight,headlamp location adjustment.
In Pa they have been on a fact
finding mission for the last two years to finalize, a unaform inforement
policy. I can't wait to see what these guy/gals come up
with.
Last Feb 01 the dot had a
meeting in Harrisberg open to the community. They showed pictures of pro
street cars with antique tages, classic taged cars with blowers
stuck out of the hood and street rods, that had no winshild wipers of
fenders !! Not to mention a truck load of photos of safety violation from
lights to a T bucket with a suicide front ends ,no brakes and a moon fuel
tank.

What does a
steering wheel have to do with a state inspection anyway? This just sounds
like another ploy by some states to make the hobby go away. I was
stationed in Texas(love the state) back in the early '60's and I had a '49
Olds. If they had required inspections back then they wouldn't have let me
put air in the tires, let alone put it on the road to
drive.

I wanna know
why they can dictate this when they sell them legally in stores. I
didn't have any trouble getting my SS passed in Quitman, Texas with my
Grant GT wheel.
