My Uncle Bob took the drivetrain from a Prefect (no idea which year) and cut it down to make a garden tractor. The rear axle was shortened to about 3' wide and the driveshaft and torque tube enclosing the drive shaft were shortened to about 15". He did a good job because neither me or my 3 brothers were able to kill it. We tried!

Thank thewerewolf for your answer. Well, I gonna give a try to the letter at first... If it doesn't work, hopefully DMV will accept to send me back all the original documents and I may try to get the title in another state... bummer. Do you have any other advices?

pauline.. yes.. you can get letter from Andre Citroen.. BUTas for your your 2cv..NO.being 1986 . think it has to be pre 68?? with VIN 2014. 14. with CARB. but I MIGHT be wrong. on the year.. as my friends Citroen DS was 1973.. and it was imported to USA. that year.. all you do is title in another state..now..

What a ridiculous over use of words... plain and simple... NOTHING in government can just be said like it is. All the cowardly politicians making it confusing so no one can pin them down as looking to starve babies or old people!! Why all the BS about "elderly and low income" owners??? But then they make sure they can only have one old beater!! All that confusing going round in circles and for what? The people we elect simply make it their number one priority to find revenue, but not make it look like that's what they're doing. In this case , they want to stick it to the those rich classic car owners, who have such nice easy lives jus playing with their toys.... Who's going to hold their feet to the fire over that, specially if they throw old people a bone, so they can smugly stand behind their podiums and claim to be cleaning the air, while damaging one of the biggest industries in California.
Want to create jobs in this state? Remove all these VOODO science restrictions, and free up an industry that leads the world.. the automotive aftermarket. Do you really think ANY of it makes the air cleaner? There are hundreds of thousands of classic cars that get driven VERY little, contributing negligible emissions, with or without the 70s "NOX Device", but contribute hugely to overall economy. Then these certifiably wimpy politicians can take some credit for CREATING jobs, and the revenue that flows from a healthy economy, rather than trying to hide behind 'lawyer talk' and pretend it only affects rich old guys who should be paying more taxes anyway!

Dear thewerewolf,
I found your message on the forum regarding the registration of your 2CV as I was looking for some information to register my own 2CV (Charleston, 1986) here in California. I got the same letter from DMV asking for a letter from Citroen stating that the car complies with or meets US Federal Safety and California Emission Standards.
Were you able to get such letter?
Thank you for your help,
Pauline

I'm sure you'll be fine. I just got titles for my '67 Cooper S, and '66 MGB, and they went right through without issue. There was no record of where the cars had come from, and they didn't care. Your car already exists in the system, so I wouldn't sweat it.

I would think it could open a whole new industry for registering a car out of State to one of those street address mail centers that give an actual street address unlike the USPS ones which have the PO box addresses.
If in doubt, flat out. Colin Mc Rae MBE 1968-2007.

I am not sure this is actually a new regulation, but a stricter enforcement of existing resulations as noted by others in the past.
In the past the CARB rules were not consistently enforced. It appears now there is a stronger effor to be consistent.
I have attached the documents that were posted in another thread.

I guess California residents can only buy Cali cars from here on out? Wonder if there will be a "California titled" premium in the future?
