has anyone ever registered a non-operable vehicle in california? if so....did u have to go through any inspections before the dmv would register you? thanks.

oh...and the car is 94

 

Check the DMV website about it. The only car that I have done that with is my 74 CJ5 Jeep, I waited until it would not have to be smogged or anything before I got current tags for it. I don't think you will have to do much, just a smog check, I assume.

 

i checked the dmv website. all they mention is previously salvaged, junked, or out-of-state cars as needing a vin inspection.

from what im seeing....all you would need is a smog.

anyone know for sure?

 

just an update....

i went to the dmv today and registered a non-operable vehicle with no problems. no inspection needed.
