How to find your old 1rst vehicle....


Recommended Posts

Posted
I am wanting to find my old truck. It was my first car. Nothing special, a 94 Ford Ranger. I know it was wrecked and was totalled by insurance in 2007. I am trying to find the VIN somehow. I know the wrecker company that towed it from the wreck and they are still in business. I know this because the man whom I sold it to happened to wreck on my road and I got word of it and went to see it at the wrecker lot. I have pics of it when I owned it and as it sat after the wreck. It was just enough damage to total it. So I know it's not on the road. Odds are it's crushed or picked clean. But I would do anything to find it or the majority of the remains of it. I'm going to attempt to see if the wrecker company would have record but it was almost 6 years ago...Any ideas?

Go to Walmart, and buy a twenty-pack of razor blades.

 

. . . all those old Navy guys that wear their ship's ball-cap talk about how their ship got turned into razor blades.

 

 

six years is a long time for a vehicle bone-yard. I imagine it's been parted out and the carcass got turned into cube, and now new steel. The vehicle bone-yard with the wrecking company (??) might have tracked the parts from the original VIN, but six years is a long time.

I figured it would be by now. I have a huge junkyard within a few miles from me that buys a lot of the local wrecks but haven't been in there in a while. I may go drive the miles of road in there this weekend to waste time. May get lucky... haha
