Thanks for all the input....I have called the last person who owned the car before me, and left a message (about a week ago), and just haven't heard from him...I'm kinda anxious about getting the information about my Y88 and doing an article as I restore it...so the excitement makes a week seem like a month. All of the car search sites require a 17 digit VIN for a search. And because I belong to a GREAT web site about TRANS AMS!!!!, I got some help on other ways to find previous owners. I know this will take some time to do, but right now I'm working out of town till Christmas, so all of my research will be done on a laptop...or cell phone.[/u] Again, Thank You, for all the help.
