Hi, gang, I'll try to read the digests real soon, and jump into some joni-related conversations, but i have a quick question :
If one has a car in good condition -- BUT WHICH HAS NOT BEEN SMOG CHECKED (this is in California), can one sell it anywhere on the net/web? Several people have told my main squeeze, Robert, that he *can't* sell the car without doing the smog check but we are desparately broke, and just want to liquidate the car, which is a '81 Buick Lesabre, cream/off-white on the outside, interior steel blue, near-perfect condition, new batterry -- it runs smoothly -- but it hasn't been smog checked in over five years -- it's been in storage. It's huge, but as i say, in near-perfect condition: R's mom bought in new in '81 and in all that time (actually, all of it in the first fifteen years, since it hasn't been run since until now), drove it 51,000 miles. We've been told it's work appx $2500 -- $2000, but we'll take $1000 for it under the table "as is". Any advice and or offer is greatly appreciated. Write to me off-line so as not to bore the others. Thanks, guys. I just found out today that i may have toxoplasmosis in my brain, which would explain my walking like a drunk and not being able to think of words all the time -- or there may be a brain tumor. I should know soon. I'm more annoyed than terrified -- I've got too much crap going on to be terrified. :-) I'll be back in the joni swing of things soon. Thanks and hugs to you all, Walt
