Commiefornias shocking plan to ban classic cars

Earlier this year we took three weeks to drive through Commiefornia.

Not impressed with has happened through out the whole state since last time we visited, in our eyes it is now a big dump.

Its natural beauty still prevails and cannot be disputed.

But the total deterioration of the infrastructure and human element is second to none.

Love those new "Tent-A-Miniums" and our stop at a Wally-Mart to buy Tylenol was a total ordeal as "everything was behind protective glass"

We were instructed to

1 ring bell
2 wait patiently for attendant
3 keep waiting
4 keep waiting
5 attendant comes
6 attendant removes Tylenol from behind
   glass
7 attendant walks you to cash register
8 you pay for Tylenol
9 we wanted to keep shopping
10 you must leave Tylenol with customer
   service ( another counter )
11 come back when you are done shopping get 
   in line.
12 wait for them to find your Tylenol
13 pay for your items
14 hours later you leave Wally Mart

And those GAS PRICES....

Once we left Commiefornia, we made our way slowly across the other beautiful States until we hit the promisedland .... La Florida

Amen hallelujah for our Governor Ronnie "D"

My survey and those of my neighbors and Calif friend must have gotten lost in the mail  ::)

Never got one or seen one. Wonder if they will have open hearings again on this proposal like they have in the past.

4 pre 78 cars and no survey for any of them. Not that I would have returned it anyway.
Old cars are not the problem. They are looking to add a permile tax on old cars due to their "excessive" pollution.
I reality what they need to do is add a per mile tax to the electric cars that have never paid 1 cent into the federal or state road fund. Every gas car in CA pays .596 cents state and .284 cents federal (includes 10 cents to fix leaky underground tanks) per gallon of gas. That's about 4 1/2 cents per mile if your car gets 20mpg. Commieforians drive on the average about 12,000 per year. That's $528 for each of the 1,256,646 EVs or $663,509,088 in road taxes not being paid by EVs each year. And lets not forget the over 2.5+ billion that the state gave people when they bought an EV.
Bottom line CA has a lot more problems than actual small % of pre 1978 cars still on the road. Which by the way are generally maintained to a higher degree than on that is 5 or more years old.
As a final thought if CA denies you the use of your property they need to pay you for that loss. How many Ferraris, Cobras and Shelbys can the state afford to buy? So in the end there will not be a ban but a additional fee to drive your old car.

Haven't they been trying to ban Classic Cars for a few Decades now?

Governor Newscum and his commie cohorts will not be satisfied until we own nothing and be happy about it.  I have not received a survey, ever!  I do not think this will happen because all the democrat politicians like the money and perks they receive from the secondary auto industry.

Let's ban private private jets, wait, the elites would not like that.

To Cali people that are considering moving to the State of Tennessee, do NOT bring your voting habits that got Cali in trouble here. If you cannot do this, please do come to vacation here, spend lots of your money, if you have any left, and go back where you came from. We are perfectly happy with way our State is run.

PS: You can sell us your nice rust free cars....That is all that State is worth.

Idaho is going left due to the CA who moved there. CO has left problems due to the CA who moved there. Even Texas has lost Austin to the CA voters who moved there. I decided not to move to NV because the Vegas area has become worse than CA. NV annual smog check on 1986 and newer cars VS CA bi-annual on 1976 and newer cars. AZ along the river is still OK because CA only visits there.
Be careful buying "rust free" cars from CA. Most of those were bought up by easterners years ago. Now you need to be careful because most in CA know nothing about rust so they bought and imported cheaper classics from the rust belt and then found out that rust never sleeps and need to get rid of that swiss cheese car they got such a great deal on.

Paul was one of the first to restore the cars to a high level. Lauren also raced in SCCA and in SVRA. Paul worked for Lauren's dad and started the stainless brake line business to compliment the SSB calipers. Paul has also done some TV spots and driven in the TA series.
