  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

Looking for a previous owner, GA

    -JJH- "Works like a Buick" - a Finnish proverb

    Hi guys,
    I bought my '70 GS from Georgia, in 2014 and exported the car to Finland. In the glove box I found some old papers and from them, I've determined that I now know the names of the first two owners of my car. Now I've been doing some internet searching and I think the first owner would be closer to 100 yrs old by now. But the second owner could still be around.

    Funny thing is, that couple of years back, in 2015, I did some searching of the second owner. I took the address from the 70's documents, entered that into Google, and lo and behold, the same name was still associated with the address. I did send a letter to the gentleman, but unfortunately after a month or so this letter was returned to me by US Post, stating that recipient has moved.

    Now, I am writing here, if someone from this forum is living in Georgia and would have any interest to try to locate the previous owner(s) for me and to try find out whether or not they'd be interested in providing any additional information about the history of the car.

    Anyone interested in helping, please PM me.
