The things that start fights always surprise me. Some of you folks need to go out in the yard and run through the sprinkler. I use WD40 as a lube on the lathe and drill press. Does that really concer

WD-40 also will do a great job of lubing the rubber gaskets around a windshield glass if you have to remove it-nothing else does as well. John

It is a federal crime to switch data plates from one car to another, which you would have to do in order to use the title from another vehicle. I suspect that there are a lot of "criminals" out there

Considering the large number of unknowns, IMHO $3500 is a very handsome offer. You will find many such cars priced on basis of "what i have in it", not what it is worth, which is the proper measure.

I don't believe so, in that you have not moved a data plate and thus VIN from one vehicle to another and thus changed the VIN of the second vehicle to that of the first. The heritage body shell is no
