Default My Cars Vin# 50 Years Later

Hello. I was wondering and thinking it would be cool to see (actually to own if money wasn't an issue) a Corvette with my VIN# (mine is a 1965) on a 2015 Corvette. Is there some sort of way I could track down the vin# and owner of that particular Corvette? Or, is this too much of an invasion or privacy and no chance in hell I'd ever find that car?

If you were buying new, there is an option where you can select the VIN.

the new VIN#s aren't the same format as the old ones, so the only thing you might find similar is going to be the numerical sequence # and the end of the VIN

Heck you said if you had the money, therefore take it for modifications from Callaway or Hennessy and after paying for the latest and greatest, get them to special Serial number it for you!
