Anyone know where my car is???

[ChrisRowe]

Hey guys!!!


Been a long time since I have been on here!!!!

Anyway, I've got the erge for another turbo car and have been looking at a few. What I would really like to know is where my old car is. It was a t-top and cloth car with some goodies on it and was running high 10's when I sold it to a guy in Richmond. The build number was 1040, but I would have to do some digging to get the vin.

Anyone have any idea???


Thanks!!!

FWIW & IMHO:
Vin & carfax will get you the last registration station.
Maybe doing a search on all of the boards with the vin & pas ser no?
The tta boards & sites, maybe?
God luck in your search

Thanks Wells!!!

I just thought "maybe" someone on the board might have the car now. I would love to have it back just for sentimental reasons.

I have an o2 Electron Blue Z06. Funny how motorheads all think alike!!


BTW!!! Just in case some of you didnt know, I was the original moderator of Turbo Trans Am Tech. Work and family called me away, but I miss these old turbo cars!!!



Take care!!

FWIW & INHO:
Just my .02 worth, before taxes, too, here, but getting rid of your last turbo buick is like getting rid of your last girlfriend or wife only to find out that you are too old too find another that will put up with you. Good luck again, and if someone does own your car and be a member of any of the boards, there's a good chance that they have at some point mentioned the pas/build no on the site.

Was this the car that was on ebay about 1 1/2 years ago? I remember one out of richmond that was on ebay and claimed that the previous owner had run tens with it. Had a front mount and a 9" or 12 bolt. I think he ended the auction early because the car had a blown headgasket. TWOBRYANS went and looked at it for me.

Ok ran a carfax on the car, and according to the report the car hasnt been titled since I sold it,

Could it be that the guy I sold it to could still have it?? :lol:
I cant remember what his name is, nor can I find any of the paperwork where I sold it, but when I sold him the car he was running a small lot.

Anyone have any idea how I can get in touch with him???

[trophystock]

Get in contact with TWOBRYANS as he went and looked at the car,

 

[Lee_Burough]

Any news?

TTT

Its a long shot you've prolly already considered, but, John Pearcy could have #1040 documented to a new owner in the TTA registry.... ????

Could your car be overseas now?
