HAHAHA dang internet police! Nah, I always blur out licence plates for my forum pictures, even for other peoples cars. I've heard a rumor that thieves use plate numbers to look up address's commit their thievery. Although personally I find that quite far-fetched. Maybe it happens, maybe it doesn't, ...

Re: HI, I'm new, and this is my 1983 Aero project.

i have no idea what it's worth! let me get some pictures of everything. i believe it could be as easy as swapping the whole thing and plugging up the electrical. but i don't know. i'll also weigh it all if shipping would be better for you.

Re: Spree to Stand-up Build

seems like getting a license/registration would make more sense then all the work you're doing to avoid it. I thought you could split lanes in california anyway. to each their own I guess...
