Re: Got a notice: 1974 Q code Ranchero

Well, generally I don't have problems, because I try to keep stuff neat in clean...I live in one of the suburbs of Omaha, Nebraska...I spoke with a couple of my neighbors, and they are like as long as no sawzall at 2am, we're cool with what you do provided it's not left laying around all year.
I spent yesterday hauling off some junk and parts to a buddy that scraps stuff, and he kicks me back what ever the stuff is bringing, like ac aluminum condensors, aluminum bellhouse off a f150, etc.

My thing was honestly with the Ranchero, my front yard looked like hell, and was trying to do it quickly and save what ever was worth keeping. When I strip a car, I am the type if I think it's worth it, I gut the interiror, will cut the frame front clip to get all the suspension at one time, cut the frame apart, for the lower control arm pockets, stuff alot of guys don't think about trying to save.
One of my neighbors said there is a little old lady, the same one who walked by my place and gave me the evil eye look, that called the humane society on him about his dog barking too much {but he also has a 34 dodge coupe, black primer, open exhaust, cool car...thinking that thing might, just MIGHT be pissing her off as well.} and got a warning for neglecting his mutt, because it's outside?!?
ah, anyways, the local laws over here vary by city and state, but generally around here, non-registered, non-operation stuff, if in the open, can get snagged from you by the city.
I've occasionally had other cars in the criveway, but they are always covered with a car cover, tarps attract too many wandering eyes.
I would be storing cars at a family farm, but that sort of got stopped a few years back because of f*&#ing sticky finger syndrome by the farm workers the family occasionally uses. Little stuff like, steering wheels, tires and rims, carbs, and basically anything not locked in a secure building.
oh well, life goes on.
Have a good one, thanks for the reply on my GTS, much appreciated.
