If there's something I can help you with in MI, just let me know. There are a few people around town that would likely remember the car, if it ever made it up here.

And I'm in Denver Colorado, I'd be more than happy to help with a fellow Yenko owner.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

I'm still looking, I've actually been in contact with my fathers family...mind you..I've never met them...the search for this car has actually been the antithesis for many of his friends and family to contact me...and it has been a good experience all the way around... nothing but support and love. I am still collecting some pictures of the car from the early 70's, trying to find more detail etc. I hope that it is out there... I've posted the VIN on here in earlier posts...if anyone knows of where it's at... like I said..I just want to know its out there...we call dream of finding our dads lost car right!??!
Thank you all for your support and generosity! I cant express how I appreciate the responses.

A private investigator or police can do a 50 state search. The police will only tell you the state the car is titled. The PI can get you the name and address of owner. Keep in mind that not many officers or PI's will do this, you need to find the right person to do this. I have gone the PI route, but he would only do it verbal. Nothing on paper of any transaction, was the only way he would help.

It's not in NICB and NOT registered in any state with reciprocity agreements with VA (basically, it's not East of the Mississippi)

Just an update, been doing some digging (still waiting on the DMV in Colorado) but have traced it down to a Robert Ash/ Steve Black or Gary Black who may have had the last known contact with the car. I have a geographic location for the Black brothers, who were friends of my fathers in Fort Carson at the time, they are in Indiana from what I've researched. Robert &quot;Bobby&quot; Ash is still to be found, although things seem to point in his direction in regards how the car became &quot;lost&quot;. If anyone has heard anything feel free to PM me. As I've stated before, I just want to know if the car is out there. I've received more pictures of my father and the car from early 70's and will post them when I can. Once again, thanks to everyone who responds with support and leads.

Something interesting is the news paper advertisement you have shown is from Rauch Motors Co. 2000 So. College Fort Collins, Colo. That is the same dealer that sold the White Douglas/Yenko Camaro that Nickeys has for sell. Also note that the financing on the White Douglas car is thru RMC Leasing also at 2000 So. College. I assume RMC Leasing stands for Rauch Motor Co. As far as I know Rauch was not a Chevrolet dealer but somehow got there hands on Yenko cars. While searching you might want to keep in mind the RMC Leasing connection. Good Luck , Wayne

Hmm, I know the previous owner of your car, but I guess that wouldn't help much...

UPDATE. I believe I have found my fathers car and who is in possession of it. I will respect the rights of those who assisted me in tracking it down, but I want to say a deeply emotional and heartfelt thank you to you. I am going to continue to research how exactly the car came to be where it is, but am extremely happy that someone found it. Once again, thank you to all on this site.
Sincerely
Chris Workman
