Default REWARD for my dads car !

Hello Corvette Forum members:
I had an e-mail this morning on my computer and I had to post it on the forum. This is from a guy trying to locate his dads old car. I thought this was super nice he wanted to find it and buy it back for him. He is offering a reward for the car. I don't know how much. If we all send this out to our friends maybe we can do a good deed and locate the car for him. Read on and thank you for reading this and let's find this car !

Dear Texas Corvette Clubs,

I am a corvette enthusiast and I am looking for my fathers old corvette. My dad purchased a 1968 corvette convertabe from Polk Chev Gnz, LA in Dec 1967. His VIN # is 194678S407314. I would love to find his old car and purchase/restore or reunite him with his old car. Any help would be beneficial.

I am offering a reward to whomever can help me locate my fathers vette.

I currently live in Baton Rouge, LA and if you should have any questions or comments please e-mail me.

Thanks,

Devin

Thanks Suzanne. I have a few media contacts. Great idea ! Is there such a thing as a vin # locator ? I know in the information age anything is possible. I'm not sure how to go about this, locating the vin #.

Thank you for your ideas.

That's great. I hope he can find it. I wish I could find my father's 65 coupe, but I don't have the VIN. I've done DMV search but no luck without the VIN.
