Lets start with ken from fremont asking i have a nonoperational vehicle so is it legal to mark it in the driveway . There are two things you have to do with this, and most people dont know it, but, first of all, even a nonoperating vehicle has to be registered with the dmvt. Only costs 20 bucks a year and you fill out a form and certify you wont drive it and keep the 20 bucks and then you have to deal with your city or county depending on where you live and i do not believe they will allow you to fenway park in the driveway because you see those cars where they slowly kind of start sinking in. You can put it in your garage and put it in your backyard and cant put it in public generally and you need to check with your local government. Next skwae little long here.
