I go to a local car show near where i live 3000 people there looking at cars Its at the Villages a Retirement community of over 50,000 residents. No doubt from all the guys and gals ive talked to someone may have been the owner of my car as well as yours.
Why? For the same reason we buy the info from PHS. (And consider ourselves lucky to do so..) I didn't think I was talking about forking over enough money for you to paint a car....But honestly, I don't know and that's why I've asked. I've never hired a PI and I thought that if they have access to data that the public can't get, I'd be willing to give the guy $50-$100 for a half hour of his time at his computer.

And the fact that the car was built in TX, delivered to El Paso, and spent the past 40+ years in Tucson make the odd of running into the original owner in FL pretty slim. It's also another reason I'm running into dead ends. I can't walk into the DMV in AZ, they don't want to give me info on the phone, and the FL DMV says I should talk to the AZ DMV.

If I had a friend in law enforcement, I might ask, but I wouldn't want anyone doing anything to jeopardize their job over something just for my curiosity.
