| RE: Cal. registration for my 300GD
one of the biggest problems is the "human factor", especially the folks at the Cal DMV... 10 different clerks might give you 10 different answers or requirements... my 79 G has a later model diesel engine which was converted from gas. The G was imported from Germany within the past few years. It has valid CA registration but the guy I bought it from told me he had to deal with it for months including having the truck impounded before he could get it registered. I also had a helluva time getting my CDI registered... finally found a decent and helpful clerk at the DMV, worked exclusively with her and finally got it handled but only after months of back and forth and 3 tickets. It's definitely possible as all of us CA G owners can attest but it takes lots of perseverence and it little luck. |

I'll soon be driving the G back to LA to have it inspected/tested at one of the state approved shops. Some modifications will probably have to be done to meet the health and safety code standards but once it is certified I should be able to register the ol' Girl. I hate to have to take it to LA but the only state approved shop in Nor-Cal doesnt deal with diesels. |
