They are holding out on the Protecto Plate, build sheet and and John Force butt imprints that are all with the seat cushion. They are holding that for ransom and think they can get even more $$$ out of that with the John Force ties.

Some of those questions are from people that sound like they'd like to purchase it and give it back to original owner/builder. It would be nice to see that happen. Somebody had a lot of time invested in that thing for the Minnesota Nazi Continuation Party to seize it in a vehicle forfeiture. They didn't need to take that away from him. That's ridiculous and greedy. Forfeiture of personal property is a very bad thing and the beginning of a very bad form of government. Watch out!

In the picture auction they keep answering something like, "thanks, glad people know the man behind the chair". The only thing that I read was that he is a US Navy veteran. So, I must be missing something, what is the story of the man? I take it he must of drag raced it or something?

I know what a DUI means but what is a DWI?

Driving While Intoxicated.

Here we refer to it as a "deuce" (sorry Marlin) from "502" the MVCode.

Kim, this is just a guess based on my history, if you are operating an uninsured, unregistered motor vehicle on a public road and get pulled for a violation your vehicle is impounded ( mine was). It will not be returned until it is street legal registered. I would imagine if you throw a DWI/DUI in the mix with current new forfeiture laws you'll be looking for a new squat.
PS. my off road motorcycle had no papers and i lost it to the man in 1975
