Dan Glover mid-engine gold 57 chevy from Yucaipa California

No chance!

 

Nope

 

Just took the time to read all 21 pages. This was a refreshing time warp!!!!!!

 

Any news?

 

ZERO!

 

Somebody has to know something!

 

I live one town over from Yucaipa and take my wife to yard sales there almost every weekend. Been all over Yucaipa and the surrounding area scoping out old sheds and backyard barns at the sales. Nothing yet. But I'm still looking and hoping for the best.

 

From past info posted here, this is latest known info:
Lost 1957 Chevy 210 2 dr post sedan last seen in _______, Illinois and owned by ________(Jakes Rakes).
Car was sold in 199__ from an ad placed by JakesRakes in the __________, Illinois Thifty Nickel paper. At time of sale, car was red with a 307 engine in stock location with no front bumper or grille. Car may have later gone to a government auction.

 

Good to know. So most likely not in Yucaipa anymore. Guess I'll keep looking for something else. say a deuce coupe?

 

Next time you are in Yucaipa, go here. 34459 ave H. See this house.
At least you can see the one car garage that the '57 was built in.

Hi Dan. I saw this article in a magazine and was fascinated by it. I thought I remembered something about you moving to the Raleigh area a while back. Anyway, thanks for building such a legend!!

 

Thanks man,
I moved here in the Raleigh area in 1989

 

Still looking!@

 

Ttt

 

That is funny. I got a 1972 motorcycle from a guy that bought it brand new, registured it and rode it around for 5 years then parked it for 25 years, that is when I got it. DMV had no record of it. Nor of the guy that had it, or the address. They made me do a vin check, how would they know what they were checking if they couldn't find it in the first place? $$ is all, had to pay sales tax on a free item $$ plus reg $$ and some sort of transfer fee, not that it was transfered $$.

 

No one has the vin number. Talked to Cal DMV and I had the Lic# but since the car was smog exempt they won't have any records of it based on Lic #

 

No , No one has that info . Talked to all past owners.

 

Glover is that you? Doesn't look like you in your avatar.

 

Hide and seek champion!!

 

Let's try this year!!!

 

Ok by me.

 

What is up with the blower in above pic? It looks like there is a bite taken out of it.

 

Looks like there is a housing around the engine and he only took off the right side to work on the engine.

 

Here is the house where it was built...

 

Looks like he's in the process of making a cardboard pattern for the engine enclosure.

 

Looking closer, I believe you are right. That looks like cardboard on drivers side. Driver side done and working on passenger side with piece of cardboard on floor.
