I used to own a 1973 Lotus Europa. It met the emission rules in place in 1973. If I still owned it and lived in California, would I have to get an SB-100?

This law applies to all replicas and kit cars. At the present time, any real car made before 1974 is exempt from emission testing, but cars from 1975 up are going to have to meet much more stringent tests than they originally had to. If you have any car actually made in 1965, at this time at least you don't have to worry about smog testing.
