Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: fccool59 on April 12, 2007, 08:21:43 AM when i bought mine it was green, i then painted it white then blue.
when it was all white i spotted anther one on the central coast, thinking someone stole my car my heart raced but i felt relaxed when reality hit and i realised it couldnt be stolen becuase i was driving it. spinner has what i beleived to be that car from the central coast but its rear gaurds are flared a little., that one is in peices with some rust, at some stage someone has had a go at beefing it and welded the subframe to the body, i remember it had a hunter valley 48-67 holden club sticker on the window so that must have come from newcastle area. Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: tubbed58 on April 12, 2007, 08:32:45 AM hi guys when i did sell it it was sold to a guy in the wollongong areaid say around 1997she was done from top to bottom everything was new and detailed it was always lurking in syd eastern suburbs when i had it and pulled a 12.8 1/4 mile with the 208 stroker she hauled ass. this was origanally purchased from spiro stivactas who lived in bexly and if im not wrong was a former member of the nsw fc car club?if this at all helps

I recall Spiro, but my memory says he had a white FC sedan. Can't recall the wagon, but my memory might be playing tricks. Did you buy it from him before he moved out Narrandera way? Regards Alex Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: smithy on April 12, 2007, 11:31:54 AM i know those plates from somewhere too, i havent had a real good look but i am pretty sure it was in a members cars post somewhere, could be wrong my brain has been known to send me on a wild goose chase every now and then.
but it is still those plates? nice looking wagon despite it all ;) Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: tubbed58 on April 12, 2007, 06:51:29 PM Alex i did buy the car before he moved it was a complete rolling car and the only rust it had in it was under the battery tray in the subframe never in my life have i seen such a rust free fc seen plenty being a panelbeater

Do you have any of the old rego papers or know of the chassis/vin number? You can request under Freedom of Information (FOI) for the RTA to to check its records and contact the last registered owner of the car on your behalf. I tracked my Grandads EK wagon a few years back that way. The cost at that time was fairly nominal ($40?). I hadnt seen the wagon for about 11 years and managed to track it down. Good luck! regards Stewart Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: Brad on April 13, 2007, 09:30:34 AM Hello Stewart.
Can the RTA search be obtained in QLD for a QLD rego'd car. And if so do you know how far back the records go . I'd be looking for info on a ute I owned about 25 years ago. 7 / 1982 . I have the original rego slip and sticker. Thanks Brad. Title: Re: looking for my old wogon Post by: parisian62 on April 13, 2007, 07:12:19 PM Hi Brad,
The RTA search is only for NSW. You need to contact the NSW equivalent of the RTA in Queensland. I think it's called Queensalnd Transport but not sure, maybe some of the Queenslanders on this board can help answer your question? With my wagon I did the search in 2001 and the last registered owner had been in 1990. regards Stewart |
