I woudl put this in the classifieds but there is really nothing for sale yet. I just need input. I need extra garage space for my new e60. I currently have a 1976 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow LWB that does not run in the garage. We refer to it as our 7400 lb. papaer weight. Anyway, I do not know what to do with it, it is sort of a family car. Any ideas?

Down here in Louisiana, we would take off the tires and put it up on cinder blocks in the front yard for all to admire...

I like ksc's suggestion. That works in Texas, too. In addition, there are some charities that rebuild old cars. You could donate to one of them for a tax deduction and shed the albatross once and forever.

Wasn't your dealer interested in trading it in when you bought the e60 
That would have been a surprise for that man when you mentioned "well i've got something to trade in also"
