    Looking for my old SVO

    Sold my SVO back in February/March of 2011. I'd like to find it and see if the current owner is willing to sell.

    It was an early 1984 model with slapper bars, leather interior, no sun roof, 9W in color, though the previous owner had painted it a couple shades darker than the standard color. It had a red stripe around the car where the thin molding would usually go and it no wide molding behind the rear tires. It had a few modifications, a single a-pillar gauge in a tack on pod (boost), Gillis valve and 3" exhaust. Vin is 1FABP28T4EF101809.

    I sold it to a guy in Miami, Oklahoma, (who turned out to be a dealer) who sold it to a guy in Blue Jacket, Oklahoma, named Chris Worden. I believe (through a little Facebook stalking my wife did) that Chris now lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Chris had given me his number after he bought the car, but it has since been disconnected. Meanwhile through other channels I found that the car was last registered in Oklahoma in 2012.

    When I sold the car it had '94-'95 Cobra wheels instead of the '96-'97 pictured (silver painted inset instead of dark grey).

    Any information would be appreciated as to the cars current whereabouts.

    We finally were able to contact Chris, he says he sold the car "a while back". However, through other channels, I've found that it was last registered to him. I'm not sure if he's telling us a fib so we will leave him alone or if the guy he sold it to didn't register the car.

    Either way we are still searching for this car...

    Still searching for this car. Finally contacted Chris and he says he sold the car in 2011, but through other sources I've found that the car shows it is still registered to him. If he did sell it the current owner never registered the car. It may be lost at this point, but I'll always look for it...

    If it hasn't been registered in all of this time it may have been the victim of a car butcher. Like you, this Chris may not have known who it was that was buying it from him. Butchers, like some dealers, aren't up front with sellers.
    I hope that isn't the case & that you are able to locate it and buy it back someday.

    Looks similar, but the VINs don't match.

    Thought I'd try once more to find this car before I start work on another. Did an Autocheck on it the other day and it still is showing as being last registered on March 7th, 2011 in Bluejacket, OK. Any clues would be appreciated.

    Thanks. We found him on Facebook at one point, when he finally replied he said that he had sold it and to forget about the car.

    I thought that was it Kendal. That is why I posted it. If you look close at the pictures it looks like it has the cobra wheels on one of the pictures.
