Have you invesigated the smog issue? A friend brought his '80 Westy to California from Montana intending to sell it here. Not having been manufactured for sale in California the vehicle is lacking emissions equipment required by the CA DMV. Estimates to bring the thing up to code were around $1200 - $1500 - and that's with no gurantee that it would pass the actual emissions test even then. He'll be driving it back to Montana to sell it there most likely... unless any listers are interested... -j-bird San Francisco, CA 80 Westy
