finding car history ,info needed.

[Pantera]

I wish there was some place like that! Trying to find previous owners is a pain. Forget Carfax on anything older than 1981 They don't bother to inform you that their records can only go back that far cause that is when they the car companys went to 17 digit vin #'s.

You are pretty much out of luck with most states as they purge all their records older than 7 years if the car has not been continusly kept taged.

I have been trying to just find out who bought a Corvette that was on the cover of a 1969 car magazine and so far nobody even knows the name of who bought it new from Motion, much less who any of the previous owners were.

Your best chance like djunod says is to chase the chain of previous owners back. That is if you can and they are still alive. I wish you all the luck in the world. you'r gonna need it.

You might post a pic of the car and as much as you know about it, on here and one of the forums devoted to that particular model of car, on the off chance someone may remember the car and has some info you can use.
