Scott, Judging by your "join date", you apparently missed most of the fray. Again, I ask that you reread previous posts. Again, I agree that a list was undesirable. However, it turned out to be the only avenue available to assure any normal usage of my vehicle. The list was NOT my idea, but...

Heath, Thanks. It's better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees. Great comment on specialization. Regards, Paul

VTwin, Thanks for resurrecting this thread. You're right, the laws here are nutty. I've previously posted the chain of events which led up to last year's laws being enacted, so I'm not going to repeat myself. They leave a lot to be desired, and corrected. Perhaps I should be apologizing...

FlyingVan, Thanks. VTwin, FYI: She and her husband had purchased it in the 60's, then moved to Wis and titled it as a Collector in '79. In '09 they sold it to their daughter/son in law, who also registered it as a Collector. But in '10 they got it back. Shortly afterward, her husband passed...

Vtwin, Despite the silence, efforts are continuing. On Tuesday, the Wis. Dept. of Admin. Div. of Hearings and Appeals (DHA) accepted another appeal against the WisDOT. This one is by an older lady who owns a '51 Willys Overland Jeep. She was denied Collector plates, because it was an...

John, I'm here to report that this affliction goes way beyond the "cheesehead" hats you write about. A friend of mine actually wore a pheasant on his head to some Packer games. The pheasant was dead, and somewhat hollowed out, but it was a pheasant nonetheless. Any help with a possible...

Only one time that I recall. It took a tractor to pull us up out of the field. As a kid, it was pretty exciting! :jumpin: Staff, You bring up an interesting point. In our discussions with WisDOT, they've mentioned that when they get a title in from another state, part of their research has...

VTwin, My Dad owned a black Corvair station-wagon, with red leather interior. Here in Wisconsin, that car had a curious habit. Due to a flat belly pan in the front and it's rear engine, when he'd hit a snowdrift, it would float up and over the snow. When that happened, the rear end of the...

Recent efforts here resulted in 2 laws being passed last year, and a defeat of Trans-123. By way of retribution, WisDOT/DMV has instituted some new policies, to further harass owners of nonstandard vehicles, including ex-military vehicles (like higher registration rates, and not issuing...
