Wanna hear a horror story about the DMV, NOT LBC?
My mother- and father-in-law gave (as in free) my 17 year old daughter a '93
Mercury Cougar XR7. Landau top, chrome rocker panels, a real pimp-mobile.
Ever try to register a free car? Since in-laws last name is different, we
actually were accused of fraud!
There happened to be a uniformed highway patrolman in the DMV at the time,
and thankfully wife (who never throws away ANYTHING) had her old military ID
from when she was a kid with her maiden name on it. Highway patrolman
'splained to the clerk that it was OK, and he would take responsibility if
anything went wrong....

Subject: Re: [6pack] [TR] Interesting times at the DMV
Reminds me of when I first registered my '72 TR6 in California. I found and
purchased it in the state of Washington and the paperwork identified the
serial number as ending in "L 0" or "L" "Zero". I explained to the DMV lady
that
that was a misprint and showed her on the car where it was actually an "O"
and
that it stood for "Overdrive". She wouldn't hear of it. The paperwork said
it was a "Zero" and if she changed it now it would mess up the system". I
said
"Too late".
To this day it reads "0" (Zero) on the reg and title.
