Default Odometer - Inspection

Just got my car inspected last month and now the odometer is no longer advancing. What happens at next inspection when there is little to no mileage accumlated? Vette is a '70 - NY car - Is the odometer reading required ? Thanks !

Tell them you only drive it to inspection Did you use the tripometer recently? Try taping the tripometer and ensure it is fully down, sometimes it won't fully seat and the odometer won't turn.
