Thanks,...Mine is a long bed, 390, C-6, oversize tires......The C.H.P. finally caught up with me and I have to re-register it as a commercial vehicle......The fee is determined by weight......Just another California scam..........Thanks again.

they go by the weight on the door/on the book, not how much it really weighs... you shouldnt have to tell them they should know...

For what it's worth, I'm nearby in Burbank. I just bought and registered a '67 F100 longbed with a 352. It's registered commercial, but it only cost me $44. I was surprised.

The C.H.P. told me to get a weight ticket, take it to the D.M.V., pay the fees, swap the plates, have someone write off the fix- it ticket and I'll be on my merry way.
