I feel you man. My family got it bad when we first moved into my town 15 years ago. My dad had a vega race car, a '68 camaro, and a 63 'vette all unregistered outside the garage. They kept ticketing us for the cars, until my father eventually sold all but the vega, we just covered that and hid it behind the garage. The garage has been full all these years with two '57s (ones a nomad 8-) ) The town also gave my father a hard time about a dually!!! My father has always had a dually as his second truck, and the town tried giving us some s*** over some legislation about commercial vehicles being on the property. Then when we proved it was a private vehicle not commercial (it really was not commercial) they made up some legislation about it having 6 wheels???? What kind of horse ***** is that?

a few months and no... well, it's got a long-expired temp tag. Until firday though it had another car blocking it in at all times, and if it leaves my driveway it's for 5-10 minutes while [switching cars around

the registered vehicles we have now are a '96 t/a, '02 stang, '00 bonneville, '99 ranger, '93 gmc 3500 dually, and a full length open trailer which is registered as well.
the unregistered vehicles are a '57 chevy and '69 camaro drag cars in the garage, the nomad we put away in storage, and another '69 camaro shell for parts I 'hid' in the yard under a cover behind some trees haha.

The town hasn't said anything to us in a very, very long time. I know at one point my parents had a lawyer contact some form of municipal government on the matter, I don't know all the details however. Good luck.
