    CA Smog exemption

    Yes, I had read that previously. And yes, SB712 leaves the pre-76 exemption in place. The bill is about collector cars, not old cars. They're not trying to make all old cars smog exempt. They are trying to make collector cars smog exempt. Two different animals. I wasn't disagreeing with you.

    CA Smog exemption

    So all in all, I'd say the real question if this bill passes (and I'm not getting my hopes up) becomes what vehicles the collector car insurance companies will accept. I've no doubt my 1978 Fiat X1/9 would qualify as a collector car, but the mere fact that a car or truck is over 35 years old...

    CA Smog exemption

    The bill in question is SB712 not SB12. Google SB712, it reads that collector cars 35 years or older are currently only partially exempt from smog checks. The bill removes the requirement that collector vehicles comply with exhaust emission standards for their specific model year and pass fuel...

    CA Smog exemption

    It's the agreed value stipulation that I like. I use my truck as intended all the time, but yes, no company is great for one and all.

    Point taken. I was referring to your saying that you didn't have a garage. Sounded like you were blaming someone else for that situation, my mistake.

    CA Smog exemption

    My policy says I must keep separate insurance in force for my "regular use" vehicle. Every 3 years they will check mileage and adjust policy premium according to their pricing formula. Premium will go up the more I drive it, that's fair, but no actual mileage limitation. I can add coverage that...

    CA Smog exemption

    Hagerty lists garaging as, private garage/barn/pole building. Do you not have access to any of these? Respectfully, bit of a stretch to blame "the libs" for that. Get a garage, you can list your vehicle as garaged at a different address than your own too. :)

    CA Smog exemption

    That's a good thing. I have my 77 Scottsdale insured on a collector car policy. Unlimited miles, $25,000 agreed value. $319 a year.

    Looks like it will be looked at/acted upon March 24th. Fingers crossed.

    Post 454 rebuild and oil consumption

    Heavier oil probably won't change consumption but won't hurt either, Give it a try if you're so inclined.

    Long tube headers/dual exhaust question

    I have 2 1/2 side exit exhaust, 40's, and an H pipe. It's loud, I like it.

    18x10 front and 18x12 rear who's done this? Look inside.

    I don't like 20s, 22's, etc. I think the 18's look great, especially on a stepside.

    Need information on 22” Forgiato wheels on my c10

    I made my own backspace measuring tool out of aluminum angle and flat stock. Go to YouTube and check out the different tools being used. That'll show you how to make your own for a few bucks.

    Old man constantly asked to drop his truck.Any stock height C10s left in the world??

    I totally get it. Different strokes and all that. That's why I have a stock height F250 super duty and a just slightly lowered F150. They all serve their purpose and are used in different capacities. I like lifted trucks too, but I have hard time pulling my old self up into them lol.

    Beautiful truck. 2 1/2" drop spindles and 2" shackles out back. It'll look great and you'll still have clearance and a good ride for those rough roads.
