Finding Your Old landy

You know how it is, you have a land Rover you did up, then sold it to make way for something new and now years later you wonder what ever happened to it... you fantasize that the new owner lavished as much love onto it as you! AND YOU WANT IT BACK!!!!

How would you go about finding your Vehicle.

I sold my 1964 SWB IIA in about 1993 to some boys who lived on Fraser island. So it's probably a pile of brown powder under a banksia tree...BUT It was a kind of baby Poo yellow soft top with army cut guards, tool racks, salisbury diff, 8 slot wide rims with mud dueller tyres and a T****a roll bar cut in the middle. I could find the Rego if I really tried! But would it do any good?

How DO you find your old car???

Maybe a Search Thread?

I wouldn't mind getting my 95 Rossignol, if it was still in okay condition.

Whoever owns it must just about dead broke by now keeping fuel up to it.

Don't suppose even if you had the rego they would give you the new owners details!

You could probably have a copper or transport dept friend do a search with VIN numbers. Rego numbers can change frequently.

Not sure I would want any of my old cars back. I do look after them but I flog the **** out of them at the same time. There is usually a good reason why I change cars

I would love to find either my old 78 series 3 Game (AJU 592) or my 71 2a swb station wagon with tropical roof. Now what was her rego number.......*runs off to check old paperwork stashed away somewhere*

All the others don't matter much to me but I would love to see those 2 again.

Don't worry the only cars I've ever had in NZ were rentals. You expect those to be thrashed
