Jack,

I appreciate the effort to get the guys and gals whom this matter directly affects motivated, but it indirectly could affect everyone in the country who has an older car, and especially anything in the category of a 'hotrod' or modified car!!!

I don't really think SMOG is the issue, it is a plan with ulterior motives to kill the hotrodding industry by outlawing the end product driven by enthusiasts! Anyone that believes that is really an environmental issue and that the 30+ year-old hotrods are a major Smog contributor ... is being terribly naive!

I see dozens of cars every week that could be called Gross Polluters, and they always seem to be neglected cars, 10 or 15 years old! The last one I saw just today was a mid-'80s Mustang ... doing a great mosquito-fogging imitation! From what I have read, the smokey, gross polluting cars put out more of the smog-producing chemicals than 1000 properly tuned and maintained cars. And, the significant thing is, they are everywhere!
