Looks like someone added voodoo (VDO) accessory gauges. Did it have an eight-track as well?
Government failure at basic local government functions.
But they’re really good at protecting rioting antifa pukes.
A neighbor had a Maverick stolen in Oregon. He only trusted it the ten miles to work, and back. Wouldn’t even let his wife drive it, because he was sure it would break down. Cops found it in Florida, years later.
That is a great story. Shame on Oregon for purging those files.
There is no honor among thieves.
It’s not an SS.
307 and column shift.
No SS was equipped that way.
Judge dropped charges because a public defender was not available. Typical Oregon judge.
It shows the sequence of the bastardization of the law to go from "you're entitled to have an attorney" to "the taxpayers will pay for your attorney" to "since there is no taxpayer-funded attorney, you will not be charged for your crime."
“That’s because the FBI’s National Crime Information Center purges from its system all unrecovered stolen vehicle records four years after the year a car was reported stolen.”
Those 9-track magnetic reel-to-reel mainframe tapes just can’t hold that much data.
I had a red 71 Nova with a black vinyl roof. I loved that car. I had to get rid of it. It was too hard to get a child car seats in and out of the 2 door. I wished I still had that car.
On a related theme to this piece, I have a family member who only buy cars built 2005 and older. The first reason is theft... the cars he has may run fairly well but aren’t worth enough for anyone to steal. The second reason is that 2005 was when the pace of the onboard electronics started to pick up on what data was all being collected on owners/drivers etc. Who needs or wants that....
I’m glad she finally got her automobile back that she loved and identified with, had fond memories of her humble ride. It stinks that it took an additional 4 years of bureaucracy to get it back. At least the last judge made a common sense decision to allow her to get it back, without paying the used automobile dealer. After all, she has at least another $1000 to spend on repair bills and cleaning it up.

This is like on The Simpsons where police chief Clancy comes into work and deletes all the 911 calls on the answering machine.
