Default Re: Anyone remember this car?

HiHorse,

The engine was with the car, but not insstalled when I purchased the car. The previous owner bought the car first, stored it and went looking for the engine.

He was able to trace the ownership back to the previous owners and finally found the engine. At the time it was still running in another vehicle. Apparently this search took him over 5 years until he located it.

After locating the engine, he made a deal with the vehicles ownwer to swap out the COPO engine and replace it with a
new engine.

This was way before the privacy laws were enacted.

I tried to run a check through NJ DMV and wound up with a bunch of paperwork, with the previous owners names and addresses crossed out by the NJ DMV.

It's totally illegible.

Elon
