Absolutely. Gong to try to get it registered/titled next week. Since it is a New York state car and they don't have titles for cars earlier than 1972, it transfers on the registration only. But since some states don't like that, I want to make the sale as easy as possible for the next owner.

Yep, I learned about the NY transferable registration with the '66 Buick I bought recently. I have enough trouble with the CA DMV, I expect more issues due to that.

Forgot to mention regarding the spark plug gap, this was the first older GM car I've owned that called for .040 gap that I can remember.

Plus we are dealing with power of attorney documents so that adds an entirely new level of added bureaucracy to the process.
