Default Passed inspection today

My car passed inspection on the first try. :D i am always nervous when i go in for an inspection and the tread on the front tires was a little low. But everything worked and i passed with no questions asked.

As I was on the way to the inspection place I had a guy yell "Hell Yea" and give me a thumbs up while mowing his lawn, and I got an enthusiastic wave from a guy in a C5.

Its been a very good day so far, and tommorow I turn 21.
:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

That's always a good feeling. Congrats.
They are usually pretty lax when it comes to a good looking classic car - especially vettes.
One year my 75 went in. I was worried about steel rot.
I came back later and the guy had put a sticker on (PASSED!!).

He says - " I wanna show you something"
I reply - "Yeah I know the rotted seat belt reinforcements"
He says "No" and proceeds to point out my MISSING body mounts.
Ha - you never know.

:seeya

Nice!!! I wish they were lenient in VA.....have to have the darn smog pump working (at least look like it is working) even though it doesn't need to pass emissions.

Hopefully it will be inspected on Tuesday
