So if you die, what happens to your Charger or toys?

[1969chargerrtse]

I have about 45k in my car.  I told my wife to either keep it, or offer it first to my older brother for 20,000.00 and if he passes offer it to one of my best friends ( she knows who ) and if he passes another person and if they pass, ebay it for what ever it brings.
What plans have you told your mate/wife?

[Musicman]

My daughter gets it, I can trust her to take care of it 
My son would destroy it in about a week ... Typical 19 year old boy We'll build him his own toy to play with.

Charger - Goes to my best friend Amanda
Satellite - Goes to my other friend Jimmy

[Dans 68]

Probably my daughter, as "She who must be obeyed"   sees only dollar signs. And although she is only 9 years old I have plans for her to take it to her High School Prom. Charger indoctrination started early with her...

If I were to die today My life insurance would be about enough to pay for the rest of the work needed to finish building it. So the wife would probably sell it off and go on vacation.

[bull]

If mine were finished my wife and girls would probably keep it, although I seriously doubt they'd actually drive it so who knows how long that would last. In it's present state however my wife would probably just sell it for whatever she could get and put the money in a college fund for the girls.

For me thats an easy one......BURY ME IN IT!!!!!

[G-man]

If I die I dont care what happenes to it as Im not around to know. If i made a request for what I wanted to happen with it, I wouldnt know once Im dead if that request got honoured so who cares what happenes. Burned, sold, smashed, lost, stolen, whatever.

So what happenes to the charger if I die?

WHO KNOWS, I SURE WOULDNT!

[A383Wing]

Our 3 kids already have me half-buried as to which of the 9 cars we got here for who gets what....

[68X426]

When they pry my dead cold hands from the steering wheel .......

it goes to a museum so all the little minded intolerant politically correct enviro whacko gasoline hating prius drivers can come and make fun of me and my hot rod.

  WOW Rob!!!!!,your brain never stops ticking,you're already thinking of things like this?

[Ghoste]

I had once started to make a carefully inventoried list of all of my automotive and guitar crap so that I could establish values on everything and direct who should get what of the things that meant the most to me.  I was making a good start when I decided that I should involve my little bride in the project.  I called her downstairs and started to explain what I was up to me when she turned to me and said, "Knock yourself out but when you die I'm just having a giant yard sale with a sign that says ALL ITEMS ONE DOLLAR".  She then went back upstairs and I tore up my list and forgot about it.

Awe man, I thought I was getting one of the Chargers!

[TUFCAT]

I hope my wife would sell it for the money.  In fact, sell everything!!!  Why keep my stuff if I'm gone?  I'm really not very sentimental about material objects....except for an extremely well worn stuffed animal that I've kept 41 years -  which will be buried with me.

Of course, outside of my home my largest investment is my car.  Anybody can drop in a second, that is way to much invested money to leave people guessing what to do with?  I'm sure I'm not the only one that has ever thought this?  So your answer is?

  Oh man that is funny.  Kinda of.

[Ghoste]

Yeah.  She loves me, she really loves me. 

[Silver R/T]

well if I won't pass it onto my kids then my brother will have it, as long as it stays in family

[riggs626]

If I could id like to keep it in the family with orders not to sell it but if not donate it to a museum as long as it doesn't become a general to be jumped

[bull]

Yeah.  She loves me, she really loves me. 

She sounds like a real peach.

[Ghoste]

Actually she is and for the most part she is very patient with my automotive obsessions.  I could have done much much much worse.

Well, she ought to at least ask $100 for the Charger.

[dkn1997]

If I die, I have a select few friends who have been directed to clean out my temporary internet files... that's about as far as I've gotten with my afterlife plans.

[greenpigs]

Depends on when I bite the bullet. Next week the wife would sell it and use money for kids. If I am lucky and old then most likely my son. But if my daughter wants it also they would have to work it out.

Sometimes we just don't like to talk about it. Glib answer is about taking yourself too seriously...we don't want to imagine life without you...I would miss Mark but we have taken care of all these things. No one goes in the garage after he passes but Ray. I wouldn't know what to do with the 65 Belvedere race car...Ray will. Charger stays with me...Dart stays with me...and I keep the trailers and tow trucks so I can still go to shows. Same if I go first...but he'll have to sell the Charger...no other chick in my seat or I'll haunt him! lmao!

[devilgear]

Well my boy has loved my 73 since he was 2, and he owned into it as well.It would go to him along with my tools and most of my guitars.My little girl would get my 2006 Charger R/T.How cool would it be to say you drive the car you drove home in from the hospital.They would divide up my guitars too.I have more in them anyway...HA.I know my wife would not get rid of anything of mine, she would give it all to my kids...

[41husk]

My wife, would have them all for sale along with the mopad and my other rental buildings before the dirt would settle.  I have told her to check the values before simply selling them off at 5k a piece or best offer   I don't think either of my kids have any interest.

What plans have you told your mate/wife?

A few years ago when a friend of mine died at the age of 47, it was a wake up call that s**t happens. I made sure to get all 6 classic cars legally in my name so there'd be no hassle for my wife & daughter proving ownership. In New York state, anything older than 1974 doesn't have a title, it has a transferable registration. I registered & insured all of them, but have since sold one, & have 5 left. All my wife has to do is show the marriage & death certificates after she decides what she's doing with them.

The 5 cars would be the easy part for her, I'd hate to have to go through the attic, the basement, the shed, both floors of the garage & see what's in the 26,583 boxes of parts. 

[472 R/T SE]

What to do with my hot rods?  That alone has my family & my wife not talking to each other.

When I went to sleep for a few days my Mom, brother & sister flew up here.  One night the conversation of selling my cars' came up.  Nothing was known yet but my wife wanted to contact a good friend who buys & sells cars about mine.  My Mom & family was pissed that she didn't give me time to come out of it & was already selling off my prized possessions.

To this day there's still no communication.  You know some days I think my other half planned it this way.
My brother wanted to contact a friend about loaning him the money for my Charger.  I guess my wife laughed at him.  She's been watching too much BJ. 

Until I get a will made out, it's pretty obvious what would happen to my stuff.

[moparnole]

When I die, I will be buried in my Charger, inside an above ground grave made to look like a garage, it will have windows so people can look in and admire me, and the Charger. The garage grave will be locked, but if someone tries to break in and get it, my body will be spring loaded so that it will fling my lifeless corpse among the intruders.

As far as mine when I die....haven't really thought about it. Like to see another Mopar fan end up with 'em.

One of the things I had thought about is building a portion of a museum that would have unfinished car projects set up like a memorial around my resting place (got that idea from my sister who suggested burying me in a junkyard).  In the grave, I would still take one particular Charger with me (just to keep it out of the hands of a particular set of relatives that want it).  Yes, I know you can't take it really with you, but I would still like to try.....

Maybe they could create a Mopar cemetary with above ground tombs big enough to fit the Chargers inside, kind of like down in New Orleans where all of the graves are above ground   Seriously the idea of taking a car with you or being buried in one is a little selfish. These cars need to stay among the living so the Mopar legacy will live on.

I agree I would imagine the original owners of my cars are at least close to the dirt matress, and I am sure glad they didn't decide to be buried in there cars   I love my cars and I hope some one else can feel the same pride, joy, love and frustration I have enjoyed   Speaking of frustration on more than one occasion I have considered destroying my cars on my own
