Hey, we think you bought a stolen car, and Kansas law says we need to
crush it instead of trying to find the real owner...in what world does
that make sense?

When Richard Martinez bought a 1959 Corvette for $50,000 from an Indiana
dealer in 2016, the Kansas man didn’t realize he still wouldn’t have
possession of the vehicle five years later.
After buying the car, Martinez took it to a Kansas Highway Patrol
station for a mandated inspection, but the KHP seized his classic
Corvette because of vehicle identification number issues, including an
issue with a VIN plate located in a non-public, “secret” location
visible to the KHP only by looking under the car with a mirror.
The government concedes Martinez did nothing wrong, that he “was not
aware of the [VIN] issues and defects,” and that there is “no question”
he is “an innocent owner.” Instead of returning the car, though, the
government has spent years trying to destroy it.
