likewise any hesitation to return the situation to the stock configuration is a federal violation and can result in temptation for backdoor penetration by a prison shower patron.. and you dont want that, now do you?

PM ME I'll give you a list of all local shops that perform illegal smog procedures to get your car to pass. I'll also give you all owners telephone numbers, and pictures/videos of them providing illegal smog tricks. I'll also provide video footage of car swapping on the smog machines, and how you too can get into this lucrative market of smogging cars illegally and going to jail for 20+ years, along with hefty fines. Hell its easier to sell crack on the streets, and you will probably get into less jail time. Oh yeah dont PM me about these places, I cannot provide my sources, as I'll be guilty by association, and do jail time as well.

I grew up in Willits, so I'm guessing this is what you meant. And it needs to be "your dad's car."

change your mailing address. then have your dad save your mail. set it up like you are living in willitz. if you live there with him you don't have to smog your car every two years. probably do when you are buying or selling though

well since you have to smog like every 4 years or so i would suggest that you have a set of manifolds/cats sitting in your garage and every 4 years stick them on, get it smogged, then swap them back out. Will take you a long weekend but after a while youll get used to it.
