Californians! Questions on smog checks...

[mr.vang]

i plead the 5th , But you get what im saing. Barrys on the same boat.

If i write on the bill of sale " is _____ am selling this car : ______ AS IS for the amount ______
signed seller and buyer , dated. That buyer cant say or do shit after the money is handed over.

For the PO, if the seller wants to smog it, let him. Depending on laws where you live you might have to smog it as well there.

like others stated, selling the car AS IS mean shit. if the car was NOP its a different story. the buyer can come back and make you pay for a new cat, ects. buyer can take you to court for repair bills. you as a seller will have to provide a smog certificate if not sold as a NOP.

Tony, does your car have an OEM cat?

yes sir, probably never changed.
should be able to get a quality aftermarket one ( Magnaflow i think ) according to my muffler guy.

I've only seen a couple OEM ones go bad, usually they don't.

Either way, hope you get that bitch sorted out.

PS: You ever make it up to La Crescenta anymore? I want the fenders done on my turbo car.

I was figuring on changing it sooner or later, its the original one by the looks of it. hope to have it done by next week when i have some time.

No worries man, i'll have to cruise up there and sort that out for you.

Wow this thread got big... For the record, no smog church was ever completed. I called the DMV in California, explained my situation and was told I would NOT need a smog check. The car was being exported outside of the state so I'm required to meet Utah's registration requirements, not California's.

Here, in order to register the car I have to get a safety check with an emissions test.
