C500

Folks,

I'm trying to track down the original and any previous owners of my C500.  The car is the one in my avatar, and VIN XX29L9B210711. I know it was sold new at "ED VAN NESS MOTORS" in Fairview, New Jersey. I've been in contact with the previous owner I bought the car from, but he doesn't have any contact details of other owners.   :shruggy:

After NJ, the car spent about 14 years in Wisconsin, then 13 in Arizona  :icon_smile_cool: with the same owner, then another year or two in Arizona with a new owner until about 1 year ago when I found her.  :woohoo:

With all the knowledge in the aero section, does anybody know any of the earlier owners? I would love to find the original owner, and even better, some original paperwork (not holding my breath for that one).

I've searched, and there's an Ed Van Ness motors in Wayne, NJ. If nothing comes up here, I will try them in the hope they have records, and that it's the same company from Fairview.

Thanks Dave, some very useful info there.

The Wayne Dodge website account is suspended. Maybe they shut down.

Thanks,  :cheers:
