Default Re: Reproduction Documentation

Just thought I'd throw this little story out there. This is a shot of the original owner of my 68 Chevelle, taken at Chevellabration a couple years ago. I tracked him down thru some of the original paper I got with the car. I have the original invoice, pop, etc, and I decided one night that I'd try to track him down. All I had was a name, and the address on the invoice. I wasn't sure he was still "with us" even. I just googled the name, and the old address from the invoice. The next day I called the number, I'd found for that address, and an 80 year old man answered the phone. I asked if he'd bought a new Grecian Green 68 SS-396 Chevelle 40 yrs ago. He said no, but his son did. Long story short, I contacted the son, and he was blown away, that someone restored his old hot rod. He never dreamed someone would contact him about his Chevelle. He still lived in Alabama, near his dad, and came up to Nashville to see the car I'd brought to Chevellabration.
