CA Emissions Question for 1973 Truck
Hello.
It looks like I will be relocating to San Diego in about 3 months.
I'm trying to figure out if my truck has any special emissions issues I need to take care before I drag it all the way over there.
It's a:
1973 F-100 Ranger XLT
360 V8
2bbl Carb.
Hedman Headers
Dual Exhaust w/2 mufflers
I looked at some of the CA docs online, and what little I could find didn't say anything about 1973 light-duty trucks. And the rest of it seemed to be lawyer gooblygook.
Any help would be appreciated.

you are smog exempt. i have a 73 f250 with a 460, and when i asked about it i was told that anything older than 25 model years is exempt, but that law is about to change, and i think it is gonna be anything older than a certain year, no more of the whole "each year, another years worth of vehicles becomes exempt"
anyway, you should be fine

You guy's haven't been keeping up. The governator just signed into law, effective Jan 1, 2005, that the 25 year rule is no longer in effect. Anything from 1976 back is smog exempt. If your vehicle is 1977 and up you are stuck with smog from now on. Mine is a 1977 F250 and I am disgusted. One more year and I would have been exempt.
