URGENT LEGISLATIVE ALERT for AZ (UPDATE) bill H.B. 2357 I don’t know how many of you have older cars but I just received this E-mail from SEMA. Pretty interesting stuff…..
Subject: SEMA Legislative Alert: Arizona Emissions Test Exemption for Collectible Vehicles Signed Into Law by Governor
URGENT LEGISLATIVE ALERT (UPDATE)
Arizona Emissions Test Exemption for Collectible Vehicles Signed Into
Law by Governor Napalitano. (She ain’t so bad after all)
A bill (H.B. 2357) to exempt qualified collectible
vehicles 15 years old and older from the state's mandatory emissions
inspection and maintenance program has been signed into law by Arizona
Governor Janet Napolitano. Under the new law, qualifying vehicles would
have to maintain appropriate collectible or classic automobile insurance
to retain these benefits.
The new law:
Defines collectible vehicles as 15 years old or older, OR of
unique or rare design, of limited production and an object of curiosity
and maintained primarily for car club activities, exhibitions, parades,
etc. and is used infrequently for other purposes.
Provides for a rolling 15-year emissions inspection exemption
that would exempt qualifying vehicles upon enactment and would pick up
an additional model year for each year the law is in effect.
Provides for an emissions inspection exemption for collectible
vehicles for which the owner holds appropriate insurance coverage.
Acknowledges the relatively minimal environmental impact of
older vehicles, such as the older vehicles targeted for this exemption.
Recognizes that such vehicles constitute a small portion of the
vehicle fleet and are well-maintained and infrequently operated.

I'd love to see this pass (cuz when the 67 is finished I will be registering it out here. FYI: I'm originally from LA). Az has been trying to do this for a while, but the gov won't buy off on it. One can only hope (and e-mail the state government).
