Anyone an original owner?
« on: October 01, 2017, 09:26:57 am »
I got to thinking (yeah, terrible) about who had which car, now, and then thought that everyone's car used to belong to someone else, but that's not true.

Who is the original owner of their Fiero?

And don't look at me.  I'm at least #4 on my current Fiero.

My brother bought our Little Black Car new in Toronto and gave it to me in 2007.

Yesterday, one of my clients told me that her late husband bought an '84 Fiero off the transport truck, back when Fieros were first being delivered to the dealerships.  He had gone to buy a Firebird, saw the Fieros on the transport truck, and bought a Fiero, instead.  She still has that Fiero, but I guess she isn't technically the original owner.

An ‘85 black GT was my first new car. Still have it sitting in the garage. Long term plan is to do an engine swap. Hope to make it my first post retirement project in about 5 years.

She may be.  Depends if they were married at the time he bought it.  My and Melanie's cars were registered in both our names, except the 86SE because Traveler's Insurance would only allow 4 vehicles on one policy.

They were.  My wife is not on the title for some of my vehicles, although all current vehicles were purchased since we were married.

Every car we financed had both names because we were both on the loan.  All the Fieros were bought with cash except the 87 and we financed it through her credit union.

Most of my current vehicles were cash purchases.  When the cars are registered here, they want you to sign.  Since it's usually just me registering them, I sign, and my name goes on the title.
