TMCP #501: SEMA’s Colby Martin – What is the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act All About?

The MuscleCar Place

This week I spoke to Colby Martin of the SEMA Action Network to get all of the nitty gritty details on the Low Volume Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Act. The news of the act finally being able to move forward after 7 long years of it becoming law has been huge! Specifically, it now means that a licensed replica vehicle manufacturer can build up to 325 replica "classic" cars per year! Unlike current replica and "kit" cars, the customer can purchase it fully completed (running/driving) and register it in their own state accordingly. It'll look and feel just like the original, but there is one catch; it has to be emissions compliant with "modern standards!" Clear as mud, right? Colby was here to sort out the minutia of it all.
