PRO-HOBBYIST REPLICA VEHICLE LEGISLATION ON THE MOVE IN IDAHO

A version of SEMA-model legislation to create a state motor-vehicle definition for replica vehicles, and allow these vehicles to meet only the equipment and emissions standards in effect for the model year and vehicle being replicated, was approved by the Idaho House of Representatives.

The bill next moves to the Senate Transportation committee for consideration. The bill defines a replica vehicle as a “vehicle made to replicate any passenger car or truck previously manufactured, using metal, fiberglass or other materials. Replica vehicles must look like the original vehicle being replicated, but may use a more modern drive train.”
