Matt,
Heres what I would do. First the cars been of the road for several years IIRC go over all the simple stuff, lights, wipers, horn, nuts and bolts. Lean out the carb. Make sure the car looks like its road ready, clean spotless. Ask around for some one "older" to take the car thru( no offense to anyone, but sometimes DMV (Parsons) will bust balls of 17 yo with a hot rod.)
I'm sure some on this board thats local can help you out, If not I'll do it. Go through inspection worse case you fail then take it to a shop if need be for the "fix" and the re-inspection. This way you will know exactly why you failed and exactly what needs to be done to pass. This should also satisfy the parental unit that the car is "road ready and safe.
