Re: look what my buddy found

Yeah...I see no dimples & I see the 87 correct center caps, so I'd say he found a 87 alright.

Keep us updated!

Cool find. If you could use some punctuation and a cap or two, your posts would be much easier to read.

Re: look what my buddy found

If a vehicle is abandoned, they doesn't make it fair game to steal.

There is still the little matter of DMV registration. You could fix it all up, the registered owner who owns the title finds it & simply retakes possession. Basically...You fixed it up for him for free.

Or you strip it, he finds out, and charges theft charges....

File for Lost title, for an abandoned vehicle. The DMV gives the registered owner X number of days to respond. No response? They reissue the title in YOUR name. Pretty simple, just takes time & patience.

Re: look what my buddy found

go ask the local cops to run it first.
there is a lot more snow on the ground than there is on the car.
the tires still have air in them too.
it may not be as abandoned as you think.
