Passing Tech Inspection with your classic car

Thanks for a great thread 318, and man o man it can sure be subjective on rule enforcement. Ours is open lugs and they like width of nut exposed thread. Also on drive shaft loop it has to be within X inches of coupling. I think 6 but I may be lieing? I just don't remember, all I know is mine passes! And while your factory seat belts are perfectly acceptable, if you have changed them to harness style you have to comply to the two year nonsense. I understand that on the 11.5 and under but don't understand it on the 11.5 and up. Some inspectors do some don't on harness MGG date.
This is true, track to track - inspector to inspector. I've politely informed a couple of "fill in" inspectors what the rules "state". I know the track can in force their own rules as well, but they better do it to every car. In the end, they need entries to make money, so usually they look for reasons to pass a car instead of deny it.
