Pretty soon NJ will be telling you when to take a dump, what consitiutes a "dump", and what the requirements a "dump" has to meet inorder to be considered a geniune "dump".

It is vague. They are taking away your choice (freedom) of what you can "collect". What's a "collector's item" to someone might be "junk" to someone else (think G.I Joe's and Hess Trucks). Does that mean that it is in fact NOT a collectiable b/c someone else says it isn't?

i see what their sayin; ppl modify their cars and get "collectors reg" so that they don't have to inspect their cars. Well what about the Low Rider builder who builds custom trucks for show and pleasure (think 2007 slammed Esclade). There is no way it will pass inspection. Or better yet, think of Chip Foose. What if Chip Foose took a 2002 V6 Firebird and modified it, i bet that would constitute a "collectors car" Why, b/c Chip Foose did it? What about Joe Johnson down the street who wants to do the same thing but can't afford a Chip Foose car. What if he built he the same way as Chip, would his be a "collectiable" in the eyes of NJ? See my point. You might have 20 cars that you "collect".

They either need to state that there has to be less then a certain number of cars of that model in existance or they need to get rid of the whole collector car reg. Historic and classic are carved in stone. they HAVE to meet a certain age, no gray area's there.
