Advice on getting information from a former owner

[CopoFan]

Hi Steve,

Man, thats even worse than my story, thats so strange, especially how excited he got. Maybe he got all depressed after seeing it, who knows.

Here's an angle I just thought of, and one that maybe you can try.

I'm going to ask him if I can come by his house with my car to take a picture of him next to it, since I'm going to put together a poster of the history of the car for shows. Tell him I'd love to have his name and picture on this to give him credit for being the 2nd owner, painting it, etc. I think this may give some incentive. Especially since I've already run into a couple of people who remember this car from back when he owned it in the 70's.

Yep, tried that route to. I invited him to a Camaro show, to spend the afternoon with "his" Camaro....Nope, nothing doing..

Bob, sounds like this guy unfortunately will want some large $$$ for the stuff he may have for the car.. This is most likely because he is a "car guy" from the way it sounds.. Too bad the previous owner wasn't really into the hobby and could care less about having this information. That type of person would most likely just give it to you to get rid of it..

Hopefully this guy won't "jack you around" and just give or sell you the stuff for a reasonable offer.. Definately stay on top of this guy and be persistent for the "stuff." I definately would!! You never know what he has or what you will find.. Good Luck..
