Question for you -- new member here / need help

[Moose49]

I hear what you are sayin but its a different scenario for some people once their father is gone.
I would love to have the car he enjoyed as part of his memory.

The car wouldn't be registered to my mom as she doesn't drive / looks doubtful it was my grandparents too.

He had the duster after the Cuda so it isn't a scenario of him "using" the duster to save on his insurance because he didn't have it yet...

I really appreciate all the responses! It's good to get other ideas / talk through these ideas too

Thanks

Time for an update on the quest...

Ministry people = helpful

Service Ontario people = clueless! ( I am sure there are a few good ones out there ) I spoke with a lady yesterday and told her I wanted to do a "plate history" on a specific plate ( they offer it for $12 as per the website ) She proceeded to ask me for my driver's licence and then asked if it was my plate. I told her "no" and she said that it has to be a plate registered to me.... I told her that wasn't the case and then all of a sudden she must have decided that it was ok because she just did it ( she didn't ask someone for assistance or anything - just switched her tune ) She ran the plate / took my $12 and proceeded to hand me a blank piece of paper as it came up with no history.... I questioned her about how that could be since I know ( from the ministry ) that the plate was attached to a vehicle my dad owned... she just looked at me like a deer in headlights and I left....

I am going to call the ministry tomorrow and ask some questions and see if the person will "dig" a bit for me like the last lady I spoke with did over the phone. She was super helpful and willing to try things to find the info....

Will keep ya posted

Hope your successful!

So the suspense is killing me...

I talked to a ministry associate and she gave me the number of a "special inquiry" division and she told me to fax off a letter with what I was looking for and any information I have as she says they have older records still on file archived. She told me that a person will be assigned to this when they receive the fax and that I should hear something back within the next few weeks!

I can only hope the news is good and the V.I.N is found.....then the real fun begins!

Update -- Well apparently that lady was mistaken because I received a letter from the Ministry today that basically said what I already knew - They have erased certain records and have no way of looking into them at this point

It's not looking good at this point to find the V.I.N sadly... I have a few more options I am going to pursue and see where they take me but if they turn up dead ends then I may have no choice but to give up....
