Granted, the '74 - thru '82 (est) were the poorest running, most strangled automobile engines ever, IMHO. There may be fewer and fewer of these cars as the years go by, but I would have to agree with anyone who wanted to keep these poor-performing vehicles under the current smog-test program.

I also realize that ANY law to change our present status quo on the smog issue COULD be the proverbial "slippery slope" towards total "Big Brotherism" in the cars we drive. I would gladly keep the post-'73 cars under smog check rules, in order to save the pre-'73 cars without having smog checks.
