duh - I guess I should have read your sig. Although I did already know that too...

You going to have trouble storing big blue? Or can you get it in the driveway or something to get the Irvine PD off your back?

I know that drill - and something to be aware of is they will want you to move it at least 15' or so. In my case they weren't happy until the car was parked on the other side of the street for a day or 2. I was trying to make it look like I was driving it.
Just hope you don't have a neighbor that doesn't like old cars. The only reason I had to deal with this before was a pissy neighbor who would call because they didn't like the old cars parked out front. And that was with my old 1971 Alfa Romeo - a true piece of art!

If Brady needs something to drive, I'll loan him my 2008 Fusion, and will then have to drive my non Ford pickup till I get it back.

Some of y'all know what of make that truck is. No, it's not a chebbie...or a toylet-a.

Since I have far more vehicles than most of the SoCal chapter members, loaning something out is no problemo.
