Ref/Smog/Dmv questions when buying a car

Hey I'm about to buy a TII because the guy got a ref ticket for modified intake, bov, and no pre-cats (even though they just end up blowing up the engine -_-)
Question is:

Do I need to buy the car as is since he doesn't want to do all the ref crap? If so am I liable for the ref stuff? Or do I just smog it regularly and register it under my name? On top of that am I subject to any hidden fines or fees? My dad completely flipped out on me saying that I would be responsible for all the ref stuff/tickets/etc and that doesn't seem right...any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Yes, your dad is right, you would be responsible for it.

I'd be responsible to ref it? I don't have a problem with that...but would I be responsible for the fines?

Yep.

I'd call the DMV just to double check, but I'm pretty sure it will all transfer to you.
