Mass.4KTQ owner question...

[Doyt W. Echelberger]

Hello Chris,Bill, all.........I thought that the take Chris had on this
issue was just great, and I wish I had never mentioned the out-of-state
possibility (Home Base service in Florida.)  Does anyone happen to know
what class of legal violation that would be for a resident of
Massachusetts? Misdemeanor? Felony?  I'm curious.

And, he probably can just run his car through the required tests and get a
sticker, like Chris says.

But if he does get tagged in the tests, rather than attempting an
out-of-state registration, it looks like the guy would be better off trying
to sell the car to an enthusiast who lives in a state and county where
there are no pollution tests required for registration.

Thanks for setting things straight. It take a community to figure out such
things.
