    Bringing a 76 Porsche into Calif. from another state

    If I have owned a '76 Porsche for some years now, will I have to dump the car when I move to Calif., because it doesn't meet California smog?

    you can bring it to California but you will need a smog check before you can register it ,

    it MUST have all the original equipment on the engine , there is a visual check and then a tailpipe test so your "Cat" needs to work too !

    There is no safety check / rust check like on the East Coast
