NC inspection

In reading the NC forum, i read that for 35 yr old vehicals a safety inspection is no longer required. Is this true?

Tis correct. Also my understanding that all of the newer vehicles up to 96 that lived in areas where their pipes were sniffed, will get safety stickers, with no more sniffing. Everything else will rely on the newer OBII.

NC Inspections

I have been told by an inspector at Jiffy Lube that all cars before 1974 no longer need to get inspected. Vehicles from 1975-1995 will need the safety inspection (yellow Sticker). 1996 and above will get full inspection - obdII - plugged into computer not the old exhaust pipe.

Hope this helps,

Mike
