I urge you to e-mail the Gov., phone him, FAX him; whatever it takes to
defeat this oppressive measure to our car hobby.
I have sent over 15 e-mails and made several phone calls over the past month
and will continue to labor against this smog repeal exemption in our State.
Your hobby/car is in jeopardy.

This could effect your Mopar if you live in California and if you don't live
in California you could be next.  Don't delay.  Write you letter to
Terminator now!

ACT NOW TO STOP THE CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS EXEMPTION REPEAL BILL!

On Friday, August 27, the California Legislature approved a bill known as
A.B. 2683. This bill would repeal the state`s current pro-hobbyist
emissions-test exemption for vehicles 30 years old and older. It includes
amendments that do not protect car collectors and is being opposed by SEMA
and the major car organizations in California. This bill would require:

* All vehicles with post-1975 model year insured as collector cars (driven
only to parades and exhibitions), and at least 35-years old to continue in
the Smog Check program for the life of the vehicle.

* Revisions to the Smog Check testing regimen for these qualifying vehicles,
including a tailpipe test, functional inspection of the fuel cap, and a
visual inspection for fuel leaks. The vehicle would also be forced to comply
with the exhaust emissions standards for the vehicle`s class and model year
as prescribed by California regulators.


CONTACT YOUR GOVERNOR TODAY!

The bill is now in the hands of the Governor who can choose to veto it or
sign it into law. We urge you to contact the Governor immediately to request
his veto of A.B. 2683! He can be reached at:

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger
State Capitol Building
Sacramento, CA 95814
FAX: 916-445-4633
E-mail: www.govmail.ca.gov


A THREAT TO YOUR HOBBY!

Despite assurances from the bill`s sponsors that a good faith effort would
be made to address hobbyist concerns, this bill continues to betray the
trust of the collector car community. Here`s how:

* HIGH COST: This bill could be far costlier and even more burdensome to
vehicle collectors.

* ARBITRARY GUIDELINES: Regulators could set emissions standards to any
level that suits their purposes in order to ensure inspection failures.

* UNLIMITED POWERS: Nothing in this bill would stop regulators from bringing
1975 and older vehicles back into the Smog Check program at a later date.


STAND UP FOR YOUR RIGHTS!

Again, we urge you contact the Governor`s office at the address or fax
number listed above. Here are some talking points to include:

* California`s current law recognizes the minimal impact of vehicles
30-years old and older on emissions and air quality.

* Vehicles 30 years-old and older make up a minuscule portion of the overall
vehicle population and are poor source from which to look for emissions
reduction.

* Antique and classic vehicles are overwhelmingly well-maintained and
infrequently driven.

Legislators, regulators, and stationary source polluters are feeling the
heat from a failed effort to meet air quality goals and are looking for a
convenient scapegoat, using false data and inflated annual mileage
assumptions to further their case. Don`t let your hobby carry the burden of
their mistakes--contact the Governor`s office today!
