<VV> Corvairs with 'Antique' plates

[Jim Houston]

Florida allows the seller to "deregister" a car.  I recently sold my '65 
Monza and  I notified the DMV that I had sold the vehicle and gave them 
his name.  The car is no longer listed as mine - won't be his until he 
registers it, but that's not my problem..
