I can"t help but believe that someone in the enviro-nazi crowd is offended by the popularity of the sixties muscle cars that are popular everywhere, but abound in the no-rust, excess income southern California culture. Just as SUVs are obvious due to their bulk, the numbers of sixties cars are more prominent due to their flash versus the dull grey Camaccords that they prefer that everyone should drive. Unfortunately, these initiatives seem to have aquired a "motherhood" status in the knee-jerk CA legislature, and everyone seems to be afraid to vote against them. Kind of a reverse NRA undercurrent. And if you try to lobby or get an exemption, just imagine how favorable a legislator being bombarded with homeless guilt will look upon a guy protecting his pet Lambo? Cheers, Bob
