Do not obtain a smog inspection for your Pontiac in New York, it will not be
valid for California vehicle registration. What you probably realy should do
is obtain New York registration, however if you choose not to simply fill
out and sign a "California DMV Statement of Facts Form" explaining that your
vehicle is out of state and the registration tags will be mailed to wherever
the car is currently located. You can obtain a "Statement of Facts" form by
calling the California DMV at (800)777-0133 or online at
