Hi Chaplin,

Thanks for the heads up on the tail lights and turn signals. Yes, I do have the rectangular tail lights. I will have to look at mine tonight.

As you say, there are conflicting reports coming out of DMV. I spoke with Richard Dittmar about 1 month ago. I do not believe I misunderstood Richard when he told me that kit cars could not be registered under collector car status. I specifically told him that was my intention and he responded that I would not be allowed to do that. We do need further clarification on that if anyone has experience there.

Richard when on to tell me the requirements for an engineering inspection at your home - concrete floor and good lighting. Richard also said that a special inspection station visit could be scheduled within 2 weeks where as a home visit by the inspector would take a month to schedule. He gave me the name of Mr Peterson and his number. Mr Peterson is the guy in charge at the Asbury Park station. This is one of the three special stations in the state. I was able to ask Mr Peterson some very specific questions about what pollution equipment would be required for a '69 351 block. It turns out that Mr Peterson would be the guy coming to my house if that is the route I take.

I have not heard of the 5 day registration but that sounds like the way to go.

I will initiate this process in about 1 month. I will keep you guys posted on my progress.

Robert
