Yeah Paul to bring you up to date. Colorado expanded the area for emissions in the front range counties. Park is still exempt. They also changed the law last August to read that collector cars (5 year plates) are now required to be 32 years old instead of 25 and must have emissions 2 speed idle check every 5 years. They have to have been built before 1976. Collector cars were exempt from emissions before. Also, The owner must sign an affidavit stating they will not drive the car more than 4500 miles a year. Can you believe this stuff. I think people were cheating and getting collector plates to do daily driving as I have see some real junk with these plates on them. Its about the money too.
P.S. A few years ago they tightened up the standards to about almost 50% of what they were initially.
