It is required by TXDOT. But, you might find some friendly stations that won't care.

Some have bought the Hotrod clip on style hand-crank just for the inspection process. I don't venture out when there is a chance of rain anyway!

If you title it as a 65, it will be smog exempt but still will have to conform to safety standards.

Do a search here regarding inspections and or title information for Texas.

Also, if you haven't already do the same on FFcobra.com (Factoryfive Forum). There is a lot of information there and also a well planned out affair with TXDOT including the required forms, etc. is available by doing a search.
