From okfoz:
"One of the things you can do is get an autocheck and a carfax. You can at least see if
1) Where the car was last registered, city and state
2) the car has been totaled or not
3) With a VIN & current state, you might be able to hunt it down. Of course you might put out there on Craigslist, a wanted ad where the car is currently registered. It might not be immediate, but it might show up eventually.

Fred has just recently figured out the VIN (thanks to Okfoz ) & regretted selling it originally. Back then he didn't realize how few were made. He regrets it more than you know but we all have had cars back we once sold.
