I probably watch too much C.S.I. but , as I see Fred, attaching the car info, to the dealer info.. (wonderfull job Fred)

I had to go out.. biggrin

My thoughts are to the GM historical.. If you send in a vin they (He) finds your car immediately, and knows the dealer..
My home town dealer sold the 396 4 speed 66 post, and the 1 of 66 Beaumont conv... Why is there not a program, that scans ALL the dealers, and prints out ALL the good cars they sold?
I said before, I watch too much C.S.I. but some where, some how, there has to be technology that can do this.... Has to be... got to be...

Because all of this info is on paper, or at best, microfiches. Someone would first have to scan all this information in so it is in a reader friendly format, then someone would have to write a program to look for certain option codes that would ID the cars you are interested in. A) need access to the info, which is not forthcoming, and B) even if you did have access, how long would it take to scan everything in? Wait a minute, your retired aren't your Carl? And you're a nice guy, aren't you? Maybe you could sweet talk them into giving you access so a kindly guy with lots of time on his hands would have something to do in retirement? wink

so I was right biggrin

It could be done! smile

I figured They would be on microfisch and have to be scanned hmm

I think I will apply for a Government grant!!! evileye

or I can just call in and order every VIN they have..... It has to be done someday.... maybe I can get them on sale I could be the next Govier or Marti

George is not willing to part with any more info than what they provide when you pay for documentationl. I know it hurts but we need to be happy we can get as much info as we do.

I feel the same. It would be great to have it all out there for us to see but they are worried about scamming if it's all open.

I know they already don't like some of the stuff that is posted on line here.

Like what? Are you talking George or GM?

I find that strange, since they "sell" the info.. They get the $55.00 or whatever ... What "we" do with "our" info is our business, or are there new laws? wink

and by the looks of the "old car market", people are "not paying" big dollars, no matter how much paper work is attached biggrin
