Cool to see the previous owner got it back. That doesn't happen often enough.

When the Army called in 1970..I sold my 57 Chevy 2dr 210 hardtop...wonder what ever happened to it.  Always have an eye open for another..but my wallet can't open that much.

I had the opportunity to buy the 1970 Nova I had just after high school until I bought my house.  I would have had to sell my Camaro and just couldn't do it.  Still have second thoughts some times :-\  It is now up in Loudon NH not far from the NASCAR track.

I searched for the 70 Torino I sold back in 1982. There was no record of the VIN, I guess at some point it got junked :-[

I sold my first car, a "38 Ford Coupe, to a buddy. We've both been looking for it since he sold it in the late '60s. I even dream about finding it occasionally.  :o  Last seen running at Fremont drag strip Pontiac powered  shortly after Ted sold in

I know right where my '57 is. It hasn't clocked much more than 80 miles since he drove it off from me.  The guy died late last summer, he has a colection of 70- 80 cars.  3 or more are my old cars (57 Chevy, '69 Vette, '66 Mustang), has quite a few of my uncles and my dads. Don't know what the two kids are going to do with his collection yet. Couldn't afford it back anyway☹
