As a retired NYS Trooper, no, he's not entirely legal in NYS. But there's enough gray area in the wording of some laws (NYS has multiple laws that conflict with one another) to give a lot of people the impression that it might be legal...sort of. The definition of "implement of husbandry" can be read so as to give the impression that an old field truck could fall under it. Currently, or at least as of when I retired, it wasn't quite legal. But if someone challenges the current wording it could become legal.
The bigger question, to me at least, is if he's a danger to anyone else and if not, then what business is it of ours? Technically speaking we all do a lot of stuff that probably isn't entirely legal. Adultery, for instance, is a misdemeanor crime in NYS. When is the last time anyone was prosecuted for that? Sometimes it's best to just mind your own business unless what is happening directly affects you.
