Nearly denied for the purchase of a camshaft on my 'pre smog' California vehicle

I must've gotten lucky with summit in the past. I had a similar experience buying a cam kit once. The lady asked me if this item would be used on a street car and I answered yes.
She said, "okay, let me ask you again, wink wink."
Then I said no and she laughed and said, "Oh good! Now I can sell you your parts!"
I'm sure she was just following protocol. She had a good sense of humor about the whole thing.

I called them back and asked about the new questions. The guy wasn't real clear, other than the wording is new. They used to just make a statement like "these parts are not legal on pollution controlled vehicles". Why they ask about 1966, I don't know. Like someone else here posted, just tell 'em it's for a '32 Ford lol. BTW, the girl I talked to when I ordered was nice enough and all, she said all she can do is ask the questions. No problem.
