Championed by car collector Jay Leno and backed by lowrider communities, the law eases burdens on cherished classics often used for shows, parades, or cultural events. After years of lobbying—and overcoming environmental concerns about emissions—this compromise celebrates automotive heritage while keeping impacts minimal, letting history cruise without fear of failing tests.
