Denis; Yes, I have it. It is as follows:

Thomas A. Stubbs, 43 Dalewood Rd., Clifton, NJ. Date of Issue:6 29 73. Here is the VIN 136379B404108, it's a Fathom Green with Dark Green Bucket/console, Tac/gages,F41,L72,M22,NC8....Pretty rare COPO, with all these options. It has been Certified by COPO Connecting, back in 1996.I would also like to know, how I can get this VIN run on NICB, to find out what dealer sold it New. NJ only keeps logs back, for 10 Years. Any help, would help to finish Docing this Rare COPO Chevelle....No, it's not for sale.. Thanks, for any info, MIKE

There's only one Thomas Stubbs listed in all of NJ.
His address is a mere 12 miles from that given on
your paperwork.

Stubbs, Thomas
14 Marshall St
Irvington
NJ, USA 07111-8633
Phone: (973) 4161653

If it's the wrong guy, there are only two other
possibilities listed in all of NJ.

Stubbs, T
1008 Inland Rd
Forked River
NJ, USA 08731-5210
Phone: (609) 2429183

Stubbs, T
734 Stewart Ave
Bridgeton
NJ, USA 08302-3133
Phone: (856) 4511757

As a last resort, try calling all the neighbours.
There's no current phone # listed for the original
address, but here are three of the neighbours' numbers,
including that of the house immediately across the
street (this is a residential street just off the Garden
State Parkway). Don't laugh -- I was able once to
find a previous owner by calling a neighbour who
not only remembered the car but knew where its owner
had moved to:

Costa, Rosangela
48 Dalewood Rd
Clifton
NJ, USA 07013-3402
Phone: (973) 7796761

Eusebio, M
44 Dalewood Rd
Clifton
NJ, USA 07013-3402
Phone: (973) 4726930

Obrien, K
47 Dalewood Rd
Clifton
NJ, USA 07013-3401
Phone: (973) 7780940

Can't help you with NCIB reports. If you find out how
to get at 'em, let me know because I also have an
undocumented 67 Z28 which I can't trace back beyond
1976.

Good luck, and let us know how everything turns out.

Thanks, and will let everyone know, how it turns out. Had a state trooper, that said he located him, but nothing since then. I'll check into these numbers, and post it. I know at least one neighbor remembers the car, but don't know which one, we'll see. Thanks Denis...regards, MIKE

The original owner's reaction was, "I have been waiting for this call a long time." He did not ask to buy the car back he just wants to see it when it is in his area.
The search for old owners can be very hard, I have about 250 hours in this search. All you need is a few pieces of the puzzle like A69COPO2 has, alot of paitence and some good help like I had on this websight.
