So I guess that will be the end of building a hot rod or crawler, ect…
No more going to junkyard and getting a used engine tranny, ect and swapping at home yourself to save money. And how much will it cost shops now to be approved for such repairs to be preformed.I know it mostly to do with zoning of property, but hell I bought my property shouldn’t I be able to do(within reason) what I wish on MY PROPERTY? And 48 hours to remove a unregistered or disabled(not sure which or both they meant), hell it takes longer then that to get estimates from shops arrange, towing, find the money, ect…
So now police are going to be driving around and if you have a car up on jack stands and there is no oil drain bucket under it you will get cited or worse.
And you know if it starts in CA other states will pick it up.
