Topic: New to the Lemons scene... College student from California
Hey all
So a few friends and I were looking at putting together a Lemons entry for the August arse-sweat-a-palooza up at thunderhill. Like many others, I'd like to enter a crown vic of some kind, simply because they're big and awesome, and I have 3/4 of a spare 4.6 in my garage.
Which leads to my first couple questions. If I buy a $800 crown vic and manage to sell $300 of junk off it, does that make it legal? This engine in my garage - I bought it to swap the heads onto my mustang. I got the whole engine for $100, and I've sold about $200 worth of stuff off it. Is it legal to count spare parts off this as free?
Thanks for the info in advance. We still have to come up with a good theme, because I know the police/taxi/crown vic thing has been beaten to death. Maybe dress it up in 1st Dentures livery (because the only people who drive crown vics, besides cops and cabbies, are really old people). Also, in the interest of being cheap, and since I dont care about looking an ass, is my Snell SA2000-rated dirtbike helmet legal? It's full face with goggles that may or may not fog up.
Thanks in advance, and I look forward to unintentionally running some of you off the road.
