Default Re: Kansas & Missouri DMV Records

Some 26 years ago,I wrote a letter to the state of Missouri asking for history on my 1970 Chevelle.
I sent them my VIN #,a photo of the car and $20,and an SASE and hoping that was enough and that I sent it to the right place.
1 month later I got back a manila envelope full of Xeroxed B&W pages of 1970 Kansas Leeds plant assembled Chevelles & Elcaminos VIN #'s,all built before & after my car,all in sequence,as well as my photo & SASE back.
I guess they were lazy & just sent me all the had on that 136370K VIN sequence.
It shows my Chevelles 1st owners name,address,date purchased,town they lived in,taxable horsepower,title number as well as a repossession a year later and by what bank & their address.Also the 2nd owners name,address,mileage,etc. & when bought from that bank.
Interesting that it shows all the taxable HP ratings,so I figured out the engines installed in all of these,from 6cyl. to 454 LS-6.I've had very good locating some of these cars over the years and discovering what they really aren't today,as well as helping present owners too.
If you're inquiring about a 1970 Chevelle,PM me your VIN if you want me to look & see if it's on one of my pages.
