Titus_RacerX Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 It's been about a year since I last posted that I am looking for my old 260Z. The serial number is in my signature. Sold in Georgia, but could be anywhere now! Early 1974, Porsche India Red: clear over base, molded in flairs and tail, black stock interior, 4-bbl conversion kit. I'd love to find her again!

turboHLS30 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 That kinda looks like EvilC's Z I dont know which one he has but it looks pretty close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus_RacerX Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Close but no cigar. Mine was an early 260Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19762802+2 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Why don't you call the person you sold it too if you have their number and etc. there also might be a way to search for it using the VIN, maybe befriend a Police officer that could track it down?, find out who it is currently registered too? Just some Ideas, hope I could help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowCarbZ Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 When and where did you sell it? Might make it easier to start to track it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus_RacerX Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Sold it in Georgia, Stone Mountain area. Date, in the late 1980's. I think the buyer was a courier. I once saw it in Atlanta in a parking deck. I'll have to visit my dad's house to see if I can find a file on it. Until then, help a brutha out! — Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhp123166 Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Maybe you shouldn't have sold it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheeler Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 carfax should give you some good hints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cockerstar Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Carfax will only work on a 17 digit VIN that's 1981 or newer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonfire79 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 hey cockerstar, i just wanted to comment on your avatar..... Awesome! right on! Bon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffer949 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Insurance records would probably be a better route to go for finding the car. Just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbpdz Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 oddly enough, there is a 260 behind a shop here in my home town that for years was sitting out on top of a cargo container set up very similar. It came down a few months ago and the hood was open, had triple webers on it. I will see if I can track it down tonight when I am at work...

CrayZ Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 how cool would it be if you actualy found it.. im gonna stick around and see where this goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbpdz Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I'm going to have to go in and talk to the people at the business where it was parked (not in the back anymore). It was the same color, a 260, slotted mags, same paint on bumpers, same wheel flares, same front air dam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lbpdz Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 It may not be the car, but sure seems to be close from the pictures.. Let me shoot you some personal history I know of the car (minimal) and how I found it. For a few years, it was sitting on top of a rail cargo container in the back of a shop in Los Banos. It was a kids high school hot rod in the late 80's/early 90's. During my routine patrol stops, I always saw it up there.. Red, large whale tail, painted bumbers, etc. If it isn't the one, it will be a clone.. It has since been moved indoors, but from what I know, is still on the property. on one of the shops I have tried bing, google earth and google maps to see it back there but no luck (you can see the outline of it on top of the cargo container) If you wanted to call "Pacheco Power Center" in Los Banos, CA they may be able to help you with more information than I can get with the car in its present location.. Their contact information is .. Pacheco Power Center 1560 East Pacheco Boulevard Los Banos, CA 93635-4930 (209) 826-2575 I work nights and was hoping to get the vin and some pics, but no body is working there during those hours. If you would like to call them, they are good folks who would probably be willing to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titus_RacerX Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 (edited) Maybe you shouldn't have sold it. You sure know how to kick a guy when he's down! IBPDZ, I just sent Tom with Pacheoco an e-mail. Thanks, T_RX Edited January 27, 2010 by Titus_RacerX Badges! We don need no stinkin badges!
