Not Passing Smog Need Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you would think,( or I would any way) that it would only have to meet the standards of the year of the car, ie. the old diesels are exempt from the new standards, so if they want to smog check a 1909 model it shouldn't have to meet 2010 standards, as if it could any way.
just my 2 cents.
