 The only time in my life that I ever traded a car in to a dealer was in
 1971.  We discovered that the frame on the car we had was getting
 rusted through and appeared to be dangerous so we traded it in on a new
 car and let the dealer worry about it. (that is if he discovered it)
 The car was worth to much to junk out by the blue book and I was not
 going to take a chance on someone coming back on me, so I let the
 dealer have it.  After all he was a professional in cars and should
 catch those kind of things.  I have several cars and trucks around here
 that do not have a tag on them.  None of them worth much even to the
 junk man. All but one truck could be put on the road if I need to drive
 them.
