I did the same thing. I bought my BE new in 1959.

Through good times and bad, through times of poverty and times of plenty, I
have refused to part with my Bugeye since I drove it sparkling new off the
lot. You don't really think I would give it away for a lousy tax deduction
that doesn't mean spit.

As president of the National Auto Museum we would be glad to accept your car
as a tax deductible donation. You could then buy your grandsons each new
cars that are separate but equal.
Crash
Folks may be surprised, but I would agree with you. You should get rid of
the Sprite now, while you can. If you have only one son and one grandson,
handing it down to the next generations will be no problem. But, you see, I
have 5 grandsons, and ALL of them want me to leave my Sprite to them! What
am I to do? If I choose one grandson, I will disappoint 4 others who will
not come to my funeral, and have bitter memories toward me for the rest of
their lives?
What am I to do? Play the part of Job and specify that it is to be cut up
into 5 equal pieces?
