No, after the first 3 years of a car it needs to be smogged to register the car. I think the only exception to this is hybrid models. I have a hybrid that is 6 years old and never had been required to have a smog done.
In California, vehicles manufactured in 1991 typically require a smog check unless they are classified as exempt. For example, vehicles that are 1975 model year or older are generally exempt from smog checks. Additionally, certain electric vehicles and hybrids may also be exempt. It's important to verify the specific regulations or any changes that may apply to your vehicle.

Should be now. Last i looked cars over 25 years old are exempt. Wrong own a 1977 and just had to smog it. 1975 and before are smog exempt
No, they must comply with the emissions regulations that apply to vehicles made in 1979.
In California, smog tests are generally required every two years for vehicles that are more than six years old. Exceptions include electric vehicles, hybrids, and certain other vehicles that are exempt from testing. Additionally, new vehicles are exempt for their first six years. It's important to check local regulations, as requirements can vary by county.
NO, Atleast not in california. Gov. Arhold put a stop to this in 2005 i believe... so only 1975 and earlier cars are smog exempt
No in California you need a car to be 1975 or older
It's pretty safe to assume all pre-1975 cars are smog exempt.
1975 year model or older http://www.dmv.ca.gov/vr/smogfaq.htm
No pre 76 so if you had a 75 or older only.
No, the DMV rule is vehicles 1975 an older now... I own a 1976 econoline 350.
