covering VIN as anti-theft

[John Larson]

I'm not so sure you can't cover the VIN.  Dash mats do that, and I've never
heard of anyone getting ticketed for it.  They use the plate on most parking
tix.

Speaking of cars going off the lot!  There was a post a couple of summers
ago (which I saved but can't find right now) about a brand new special
ordered  996TT  (wait time was like a year) leaving the detail rack at
Carlsen in the hands of a guy who just walked up and announced he was the
proud new owner and drove away, never to be seen again.
