Default Fourth gens with BB and emissions?

Just wondering if anyone has a BB in their third or fourth gen that live in an area with emissions? I'm really wanting to put a BB in my fourth gen and don't currently have emissions where I live but I'm looking at moving to an area that has emissions. I don't wanna turn my car into a pure strip car either.

I live in an emissions area where they scan OBD2 cars and just do a safety inspection on OBD1 cars. I can get a sticker but some places won't give me one because of the BBC. So I may just have to swipe the sticker off my 88 pick up and put it on the Camaro and then just get another one for the truck.
I know some of you may laugh at that but my mechanic that does all the work on my newer cars and my inspections gave me this idea. He was going to just give me a sticker for my car until he got a fine for his own car not being in compliance.

Nothing is sent to the DMV to show that the car has passed emissions? If you were to get pulled over and the officer asks for license and registration, no flags will come up showing that the car still needs to pass even though there is a sticker on the windshield?
