Wow what a sticky wicket. I do know of someone that in Tucson did take a saws all and divided a car in half, but it was not a collector's item. He was an ornery old coot anyway.
Not know how the division of property goes, if and appraisal is made, then is it negotiated for one party to pay half to the other party or is it to be sold? Reason I ask, is I may be facing the same situation. House is straight forward, but I have three cars that are worth at this time collectively 4,500 IMHO. She has her van that is paid for, I have a 97 Olds as a daily driver. She wants no part of my medical bills. She does not realize that in a community property state, I would be entitled to half of her 401k. The lawyer I contacted said it would be a very easy agreement to draw up.
There is a slight possibility we might get back together, although I doubt that. She has prayed that I die and since I haven't she can not stand to be in the same room with me.
Sorry Bill, I did not mean to bring this up and really did not want to derail the thread but it did trigger a thought. I have never had any high dollar cars and have worked all my life for what I do have. In 27 years, she has never paid anything toward the house. I am working now to get the house ready for sale.
