hi king-jut may have it sorted i was trying to trace a reg no in your area and had got it down to a street with 31 houses i took a wild chance on a company in that st but but 2 phone nos were dead , kept fishing and found another no rang it and an answer , a wild guess do you own a car with the reg no ------ the lady said yes , does it mean anything to you! no , so i will await the call from her husband to see if he wants to sell it, thanks for your responce peter

Hey no problem, if you need any one to have a quick look over it, drop me a PM and ill see what I can do, it wont be a professional option but un-biased non the less.

Im presuming its a porsche your looking at? there are very few classics around here I know of, one white, 2-3 red and a black one.

Petric,
Seeing you are now the number plate 'expert' are you able to do some detective work on my UK delivered car's plate KUP 406 J .
The first date I have is 10/75 to a Corner of Neasham and I have some later owners names also.
Ferry man is looking for me as well.
Can you find out anything for me from the Durham end of town ?

TIA
Dennis.

Thanks Petric

I only have limited info from DVLA unfortunately.

TIA
Dennis.

Peter,

Many thanks for this excellent news.
I have had heard of Neil Corner via my ancient Motor Sports and his historic race cars.
I would like to make contact with him (e mail ? ) if possible to see if he remembers anything about my car.
Thanks again for the great news - as you can imagine its hard to find these things out by remote control !

THX
Dennis.
