I did manage to get the BRB to pass smog, barely. I drove it around for a few weeks before I got a job offer back in California (my old job)!
I sold the BRB to a fellow who lives "down south" a bit towards Aurora. I gave him all the extra parts that I'd gathered, along with almost all of the stuff I'd removed for whatever reason. He made a trip back to pick most of it up. Of course, there were still more parts hiding under all the stuff on my bench.
