Hi all,
I am so excited today. After a year or so of owning my 64 I finally decided to google my previous owners(which I had their previous information)to gather phone info on them and was able to talk to two of my original three owners. The original and second owners were so grateful I called them and I talked with them about the 64 they previously owned. Both had moved from their original locations but I was able to gather a few leads and the rest is history. The third owner is a long time friend of John Pirkle's so I figured it wouldn't be too hard to find him. The two I spoke with plan to look for any original photo's, paperwork and anything else that might be of interest to me. The second onwer was rather disappointed he didn't have a chance to buy the car when it was sold to me. Obviously he wasn't told of the sale. The first owner bought the car new in late July of 64 and sold it to the second owner in late 1968. Claimed they were starting a family and the Corvette wasn't family enough. Bought a station wagon. The second owner kept it until a divorce forced him to sell in 1983. The rest they say is history. What a great thrill to speak to these folks. We plan to continue our new found friendship.
Cheers to all,
Craig w.
