I would imagine they might be less than thrilled to hook you up with a customer that you intend to inform as having a restamped engine. Not that they won't oblige, they just might not be enthusiastic.

(Maybe practice your technique by calling up the husbands of old girlfriends and let them know you have first hand knowledge that their wives weren't virgins when they wed....just sayin....)

Good luck.

LOL Nice way to put it. I am sure people have gone through worse trying to track down previous owners.

I was under the impression that &quot;numbers matching&quot; meant something different for CORVETTE OWNERS, didn't they do that to themselves via judging standards of a particular society?

Is that why we refer to original/unrestored cars as being &quot;cherry,&quot; &quot;virgins&quot; and &quot;unmolested&quot;?
