I found the original owner of my car from names on some of the papers that came with the car.  Made some phone calls after searching the internet and found him.

Might be able to do a DMV check in the state the car may have come from.
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

whether the experience of your e-bodyn history of the area?
it would be great to find out the history of the car and the car's previous owners.
the car is js23n0e and was told all his life in California until 1999 when sold out of there,

Its bad when your original owner has a common name. My original owner was Thomas Smith in Huntington Beach CA. He owned a Union 76 service station back in the 70s and my dad worked for him, and that is how we got the car. I tried calling a Thomas Smith that still lives in that area, but being such a common name, who knows if it was him. I never got a call back.
