There wasn't a single part on that car from a '57 Chevy but I bet it was registered as one. If it was registered as a new build it would have to pass safety inspection. This car was full fiberglass body with painted on lights and chrome trim, plexiglass windows, full race tube frame, center driver seat in the back, parachute, race slicks, on and on. It was a full-on race car registered and driven boldly on the street. I used to get pulled over for things like a missing tag light.

I think these crazy rides are cool. Just hard for me to deal with hypocrisy and it sucked being harassed

In NY anything with less than four wheels is a motorcycle. You need a motorcycle endorsement on your license and a helmet . They did make an amendment that if it has a permanent roof you dont need a helmet or the endorsement. Guy that I know goes to shows with Robin was funny seeing him in it with a helmet same with the old Isettas
