All right. . . . . . 2 say there is and 2 say there isn't. The 2 that say they have never heard of it are both 92'*. Usually there is a age exception to emission (10 years) or at least in the states I lived in that have emissions - Maybe that is the case?
I lived in Joliet, Oak Lawn, New Lenox, Frankfort and always had to have emissions done regardless of the year of the vehicle I owned. Things may have changed since I lived there but that is how it was.

I have all my vehicles registered in Belvidere (PO box works) and no emissions notices in the past 7 years.....
in the suburbs of chitown you will be required to take emissions (OBDII are nolonger run on the dyno'* as it is a PCM scan for fault codes (self diagnostic capability dontchya know...) but you cant clear all adaptives/codes and run in for the test, the vehicle has to have all drive cycle tests completed and passed otherwise they tell you to come back in a week when the PCM has retested itself...
my 68 Ford would have to go in for a test if it was registered near chicago, but not in belvidere/rockford area. it would just be an idle test anyway...and thats easy to fudge....
if ya get out here you can check out our twin engine 94 Olds 442
lol
