The safety inspect depends on person at DMV. Some don't care some insist on it.

I did NOT need a safety inspection when I titled, registered, and got vintage plates my 73 Europa for the first time last year.  The title had been lost and it was last registered in Cali in 1993, so I had to jump through hoops, but no safety inspection.

It's pretty easy.  I recently did my 70BGT.  You don't need a safety or emissions.  As long as its at least 30 years old.  You technically only supposed to drive for car shows and club activities.  But how are they going to know?
I think I paid $65 with personalized plates.

BTW, this is my first group email since joining the club.  I figured I'd just join in on the fun.  <mime-attachment.png>

Sorry Brownie, it wasn't me. I went from driveway to driveway. The sqealing fan belt and old tires kept me from making too many stops. Hopefully I'll be able to replace the fan belt and de-glaze the pulleys tonight as well as check out a few things Rob Green recommended. New tires should be here Friday, but I won't be able to get them mounted till next week.

Does anyone have any recomendations or advice about getting the antique plates? I have not had a change to review the application process yet.

I bought a '76 Mini last night! Drove it from Logan to North Ogden with no problems (I even hit a streach of I-15 at 65 mph). It looks good (but not perfect), has a few mechanical items to take care of, but it will definately be a driver. Now I can restore my '70 B while I drive/maintain/learn about the Mini. Hope to motor with all of you at the Antelope Is. run!

To answer the next few questions:
998 cc with Automatic
Disc's and shocks up front, drums and cones in the aft
12" mini-lite style wheels (plus a set of 12" steelies)
