A MUCH more interesting question is: What will the City of Tulsa DO with the car, right after they un-earth it? It will take some time to locate the "lucky-winner", & " he'll " have to receive a 1099 "ordinary-income-tax" form from Tulsa, representing the "Fair Market Value" on the car, & be prepared to pay income tax on the "cash" value of the car, or sell (!!) it, to pay the tax-liability, and/or arrange to transport it somewhere, & THEN arrange to overhaul it, mechanically. I suspect that "Tulsa' will "move" the car to some "safe-place", immediately, & then will restrict public-access (contact) with it, pending contact w/the "lucky winner" (after all, ifn it's YOUR car, would you want a bunch of philistines "pawing" all-over it? We'll be there, anyway, if only for the 'circus'. Neil & Norma & Horace -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Need an answer fast?
