i need to find a black 240sx that was sold about 6 months ago how would be the best way to locate the car?

NismoPick

Could you be any more vague?

Did you sell it? Was it on ebay? What state? Do you have the VIN?

dude, thats about like walking into louisiana and asking "Hey, has anyone seen a white guy named Johnson?"

snwbrderphat540

mean texas and named bob

260zturbo

uhhh you see more black people with that as a last name in a piggley wiggley or dollar tree......IM not trying to be racist just staying a fact

snwbrderphat540

and plus louisianna is more black populated, thats why i said use texas and bob. much better metaphor that way.

JPerkins

sorry about that, i forgot about the lovely chocolate city of new orleans (as a native i reserve the right to mock Ray Nagen and Cathlene Blanco). I'm from one of those 98.9% white, lost-in-the-woods little towns in LA. Which just happens to have a massive population (comparitively speaking) of white guys named johnson. <----((Not racist) no matter how bad my hometown's reputation for it was) haha, come to think of it, i better call all my old buddies and tell em they're outnumbered.

ok all i know is the name of the guy who sold it and around the date when he sold it. but thats all i might be able to get the liscence plate. but im not sure how im going to buy it back though.

...
what? buy it back?
what are you doing with your other 2 investments?

260zturbo

how do you know the guy wants to sell it back to you?

tonsoffun300zx

well it's not for me but my brothers girlfriend. i just need to find it. and every man has his price.

JPerkins

Did you suddenly become rich or is she rich?

tonsoffun300zx

it was her brothers car that he gave to her but her dad sold it and now she wants to find it. and yeah she doesn't pay rent and has a full time job for 8.50 and hour

NismoPick

If you have his name (last name is most important) & know at least the city / general location of where he lives, search for him on www.dexknows.com or www.anywho.com

Ever heard the phrase "it's like searching for a needle in a haystack" ?

i was hoping it would be as easy as putting his name into the dmv records and looking up his sales

NismoPick

You could try... but the DMV is very strict about that stuff. Usually you have to pay a fee, if they even release that kind of info.

life does not mimic "Gone In 60 Seconds".

NismoPick

Buahahhahaha.... that movie came to mind for me too.

tonsoffun300zx

i wish it did but the dmv should have some record of the sale right?

NismoPick

Dude... if you have his name, search for him on those websites I listed. Unless his name is super generic like Bob Johnson...

entropy31

yeah, probably. will they give that info to you???? probably not.

entropy31

great minds and such, eh??

tonsoffun300zx

then how else could i find it?

NismoPick

Knock on everyone's door in California... that would be pretty effective... about the same as asking over and over how to find someone on a Z car forum.

entropy31

get lucky and see it in a parking lot??
