Buy, drive, enjoy and sell without any real penalties or worry.

Even if the thing becomes an motorized IED, your exposure is minimal.

Concerning the OP, nicely done...looks like a hoot.

Part of a fun car for me is not worrying about driving it. The nice thing about an older cheap car is that you don't have much financial exposure if something goes wrong, and that you can almost always get your money back. There were places and situations in which I wouldn't drive my 911 due to concern over damage, theft, or weather. Not so much with my RX-8!
