in the aftermath of a divorce. I think he didn't want his wife to have that car. Think about it, how could a car that rare still stay in one piece if it wasn't being driven. If I was a thief I wouldn't keep it around. That thing would be in a bazillion pieces. The motor, the trans, the hood. All of it.

How does that work? I mean after the insurance co cuts you the check? Does he have to pay the settlement back?

He didn't have insurance to cover theft.

So no one tried to register it for 37 years? I sure wish that car could talk.
