Man, I hear you on the paperwork chaos. I once found my registration wedged in an old atlas in the trunk—no idea how it got there. These new rules are a pain, but at least they’re making me organize stuff I should’ve dealt with years ago... grudging silver lining, I guess.

That’s classic. I once spent half a morning tearing apart my glovebox looking for an insurance card, only to find it taped to the back of a sun visor. No clue what past-me was thinking there. These new city rules are a headache, but at least I’m finally tossing out expired emissions slips from 2012. Guess it’s forced spring cleaning... even if it’s in July.
I get the frustration, but honestly, these new rules are just another way for the city to nickel-and-dime folks who don’t have the cash for fancy garages or off-site storage. Not everyone can afford to keep their classics in showroom condition or pay for extra permits. Yeah, it’s a pain cleaning out old paperwork, but I’d rather deal with a messy glovebox than shell out more money just to keep my car parked where it’s always been. Feels like they’re targeting regular people more than actually solving any problems.
- Totally get where you’re coming from.
- These new rules do feel like overkill, especially for folks who just want to keep their old rides on the street.
- Not everyone’s got the budget or space for a garage, and honestly, isn’t part of the fun having your classic out where people can actually see it?
- I guess I see why the city wants to clean things up, but it’s hard not to feel like we’re being squeezed for every little thing.
- Hang in there—most of us are just trying to keep our cars running, not turn the neighborhood into a junkyard.

Exactly. Not everyone’s got a spare $300 a month for storage, and street parking is all some of us have. I get that the city wants to keep things tidy, but these rules just punish regular folks. If your car’s registered and not falling apart, what’s the problem?
Feels like they’re lumping everyone in with the handful of people who leave rusted-out shells on blocks for years. Most of us just want to drive our cars and maybe wrench on them now and then. I’ve had my old Camaro parked out front for years—never had an issue until now.
Honestly, if they keep tightening things up, you’ll only see classics at shows or behind closed doors. That’s not what these cars are about.
