Vehicle search question
For those of you that own early 1970's vettes, is there a website where you can track the whereabouts of a 70's era car that only has a 13 character VIN? Let's say you used to own a 1974 Corvette, you still have the VIN from an old registration, but you have no idea whatever became of the car and you wanted to find out. Is there a website that you can go to that still recognized 13 digit VIN's? Every site that I have been to can't help w/out a 17 digit VIN.

I found a site with Google that will search 13-character VINs. However, it's illegal to try to find an owner via VIN numbers. The best you can do is get a Carfax, maybe it will tell you if the car is still on the road somewhere.

I've heard of people being able to find a "few" very late model 13 digit VIN cars on Carfax, but for the most part, searching a 13 digit car on Carfax won't yield anything.

Can you share with me the site you found on google, because I haven't been able to find anything.

I was able to find a little info on mine. Just go to the year, then show registry, vin numbers are listed.
Good Luck,
