| Well, after roughly 2 1/2 years of fixing up my Bricklin, I finally was ready 
to get it smogged , registered and back on the road. I brought it to a smog 
station today, and after arguing with the mechanic for a good 5 minutes that 
it car is NOT a kit car, yes it is a "real car", no its not supposed to have 
a catalitic converter etc.... he finally hooked her up and started the test. 
The car passed a while ago without any problems before, but this time it 
FAILED MISERABLY. All that work, all that time and effort and I cant even 
drive it....yet. I know that in the last couple years the smog requirements 
have been changed ( at least in California ) and now I gotta pay some jerk 
weed to get it up to specs. What a disappointment.  It is "supposed to be 
ready tomorrow" and I will try again.  I will keep you guys posted and 
Hopefully #2525 will be on the streets this weekend.
