I was at the DMV yesterday doing my requisite registration duties. As I was finishing up I inquired about the 76's smog requirements amid the new smog laws. I was told (and confirmed through the supervisor) that the 76 was never due for smog due to the fact that I had collector plates prior to the new smog laws being enacted. The only requirement being I never allow the registration to lapse. I'll let you all know next June.

Nice. Good luck

Correct. I had that with my 79. As long as I didn't let the collectors tags expire I was grandfathered in and didn't have to do emissions.

New smog laws being what year. They changed again two years ago I believe?

Yes the clerk used the term "Grandfathered" too.

If it's newer than 1975 and not continuously registered as a collector vehicle then it needs smog checked every re-registration.
