I wish you Good luck.
Please take a picture of the cowl tag,or at least write it down,as that is an important factor in determining these cars,and almost always seems to be the one indicator no one records when looking at a possible Deuce.
As Per Reading Marlins previous replies here.

Hope the trip proves worthwhile and the car is there.

Good luck and let us know what happens either way.

Not looking to good. I went by his Condo when I got into town and its on a short, dead end road, while I was turning around guess who pulled in and opened the garage - no other car inside. I was too surprised to stop and ask him about it, I wasn't prepared at all. I'm either going to stop in tommorrow or write a letter maybe. His number is unpublished or I would call.
I'll keep you posted!!

If you could not see the car from the street..um by accident..then it would in my mind be better to right a letter first..see if he will call you up..tell him the truth that you did a DMV search looking for the car..dont freak him out by calling just yet..letter would be the safe and polite thing to do..good luck and keep us posted.

Don't lose hope just yet!

Two years ago, I needed to drive from Philadelphia to Mass. to pick up a 12 bolt posi that I won on EBAY. MikeA tagged along so that we could drive an extra 20 minutes to check out an 'address'. When we got there, it was dark, but we could tell right away that there was no Yenko car since there was no garage and nothing in the driveway. Not willing to drive the 6-7 hours back to PA without inquiring some more, I knocked on the door. An 80+ year old lady answers, and she confirms that the car is alive and well at her son's house, and shows me pictures of it. Turns out, he took it with him when he moved away, and never changed the title over.

So, do some research, call him, mail him, or stop by, and see what the story is!

That's ok, I sent you a PM on the PA title search option, it's only $5 so it's worth a try - don't give up !!
