Default Carb/emission ?

Ok i know quite a few of you guys have carbs, my wifes side of the family has a lake house and im thinking about throwing a carb on the car and getting rid of all the interior wires, just wiring up windows, lights, and the essentials for the motor. I know you have to get a po box but can anyone give me more info. Pm me if needed.

All you need is an address. Been doing this for years with my SS. Two of my cars are tagged at my house and the SS is at my dad's house and they never even question it. The renewal stuff just goes to his house.

No problem. All you need is a safety inspection. They look at you funny when you get tags but just tell them it is for x county. They funny thing is that my grand prix is due the month before the SS and the truck is due the month after and they never say anything.

You might want to also look into a waiver if you drive under x amount of miles between inspections. I am going to try that route next time I tag it. It hasn't moved in 3 years so I should be good to go.
