RE: [Chrysler300] (300) More on the CA Old Car Smog bill

["Rich Barber" <c300@xxxxxxx>]

Yes it made it.  Thanks for sending it.  And thanks to the old car
enthusiasts that showed up and got the attention.  I think I spotted one
black low-rider 300G parked along the street.  This is one issue that will
bring the many separate car loving groups together.

If the exemptions remain, I am OK with getting junkers out of the commute
fleet, especially if the owners are compensated.  There is already a system
for receiving cash for junking out an old, operable junker.  But I am always
concerned when I see the camel getting its nose under the edge of the tent.
I believe that there a lot of old Chebby low riders that might be pushing
the 15K miles/year limit.  We will hear from them.

The air in the Central Valley is often very bad and people's health trumps
people's hobbies and habits.  Much has been done to clean up emissions in
the area, but the air will probably remain bad as long as the area is
populated.  Stationary and compressor engines are being replaced and
retrofitted as part of the cleanup process.  I read once that the LA basin
was often smoky and hazy when only occupied by native Americans.

Railway engines, farm and industrial equipment, power mowers, weed whackers
and burning of brush and farm waste all contribute to the problem as do the
livestock, including humans.

Recent notes on PCV's on early Chryslers suggest that it would be better for
the engines and the environment to have PCV's on all of our Chrysler 300's
without judging penalty--like seat belts.
