Re: 87 XJ cheap
Bill,
There's no telling what can happen to a vehicle with your plates still on
it, and name still recorded with the DMV. Friends had a Subaru, that they
had sold, wind up in a ditch with several severely injured people in it,
their plates still on it. The only thing that saved them from some serious
complications was that the buyer had the signed title in his glove box, and
he had left a voice mail message with his insurance company, that the
insurance company decided to honor as taking out a policy on the car.
Colorado DA decided that leaving the plates on the car wasn't such a big
deal, but this won't always happen.
Earlier this summer I wouldn't even let a guy drive a vehicle the ten blocks
to the court house with my plates on it, so he drove it with no plates
instead. In this county, he wasn't taking much of a chance.

Re: 87 XJ cheap
LOL! I had the same conversation with this gal the other day. I
thought about picking it up for parts myself - it has a D44 rear end
plus some other bits and pieces I could use, but the thought of
convincing the wife that I needed another project car ended that.
Understandably, the poor guy is tired of fixing it to please his wife
and at that age, fixing is a regular requirement. I think the killing
blow was the 95 degree day after the a/c quit. Definitely a project
but the body is damned near perfect so I thought I'd troll for anyone
interested.
