picky picky...

But yes, it does... when I do the hood/cowl strut braces after the front grille is painted, I will shoot it in black.

Right now it goes


grille, dash, fenders to get it all back up and running.

Then the hood/tailgate and a final wet sand/buff then assembly.

I am shooting now for the

in 7+ weeks... it is a long shot, but we will see how it goes.
The downside is I am very busy a couple weekends, so no work will get done.

**** RANT ON ****

So, for those of you that don't know, NH has a policy that says you need to register and get inspected all vehicles in the month of your birth.
It is August, my birthday is in August, so I get the letter in the mail yesterday that has all the vehicles on it, trailer, etc. and how much each is to re-register...

ALL BUT ONE...

Yup, this one.

So, I call, they say bring the old registration in (been registered for 2 years without issue) and they will figure it out.
I get to the town hall and they register the other vehicles and trailer and get to this one and there is an "invalid status code" attached.
They call Concord to check why and they say that it was reported as being sold.

So, they need to have a police "person" (PC-ness) come out, do a VIN check and then it can be registered.
In the mean time though, my vanity plate can be registered by anyone... awesome.

So, not satisified with the answer, I pay, go home and call the state and dig.
If someone bought it from me, I want to know.
I also dig up all my info, title, check the vins, etc. to make sure nothing was stolen, etc.

They say that someone tried to register it in "another state".
What state you ask... they can't tell me.
What person... they don't have that info.

So, this is really starting to bug me.
I am like, this sounds waaay to easy to just piss someone off, report they car as sold, stolen, or try to register it and it will end up on hold and invalid status.

Anyway, they say it is for my safety and if I have nothing to hide, then just do the VIN check.
So, whatever, I have to do it, but it seems like a very convenient way to get your buddy to free up a plate that you want, or get back at someone.

Or, I am just paranoid and maybe a previous owner that has said VIN number in their records tried to re-use it.
I was like... I get the VIN checkeed out and it is mine, it resides in NH, etc. and then what? Does the other person get arrested/fined/etc?
Oh, we don't handle that, we just send back that the VIN is legit in NH and they can't register down there.

sigh...

They have auto renew, which is what I do... they REMOVED my already registered for 3 year vehicle from the list, so I couldn't because someone else tried to register it and they assumed I sold it.

unreal.
