You just network yourself about the particular kind of car you are into and then you follow up on EVERY lead & rumor you hear about from the glazed eye auto parts store clerks, people that work at assisted-living homes that hear stories, drunk people that wander over to look at your car on an open trailer at gas stations, etc. You dismiss nothing & follow up on everything. Most are wild goose chases but it only takes one story to be legit. I bet everybody here has a story of a car surfacing & suddenly remembering: “OMG, I heard about that car but didn’t believe so I didn’t pursue the lead.”
