History This is a “help me find my family members Car” post

Would there be some kind of registration at the nats that would clue you in?
Man you are too close to finding it to be jacking around, If you are serious about finding this car you better get a move on while its at arms length before something could happen and it be gone forever.

 

how about contacting nsra and tell them the story, they maybe able to help you locate the car and the owner. i go every year.if you have no luck pm me your ph number and i will see what i can dig up. i think i remember seeing it there also.

 

looks like the recent pics are at the gilmore museum show in hickory corners michigan. not far from kalamazoo. bet the car maybe fairly local to the area.

 

DO THIS! If the car was there they will have info you need. Your so friggin close. If the guy won't sell it see if he still has an old steering wheel or gas peddle or something from it he would part with . Thats a pretty sweet piece of family history for a car guy. Good Luck on it.

 

Plane tickets are expensive for a 19 year old kid with an 8-5 the most I can do is look for the guy.

Did you find the car. My brother and I new Rex, The car ran a small block and a 409 I lived in Holland.

 

I unfortunately haven’t actually found the car, but I’ve gathered enough information that I know she’s still around and has a small block Chevy in her and that she goes to the NSRA Hotrod nationals In Kalamazoo every year. Although with COVID I’m not sure if it went this year, if you go or atleast see the car around town, try to get the guy that owns it on here, I’d love to talk to him!

 

Possible bump, hope I don’t get in trouble lol

 

No trouble. I hope you have a better job now so you can buy it back. How’s that for a bump?
