I just re-read your page and I'm curious about something. Here in
California, the land of the allegedly Draconian DMV and such, you could, in
your situation, either pay the registration and non-op the vehicle without
smogging it, or, on failing the smog, pay the registration and get what
amounts to a permit to drive it for one to three months so you can work on
the smog problem. I have done both. Either way, you pay the registration and
you therefore have a 'legal vehicle', whether it's operable or not.
You can't do the same in Ohio?

Cya,
Robert
