Original owner of my car...
Maybe the wrong "forum", but I discovered that the original owner of my car is (obviously?) Barry Goren, PCA member, Michigan I believe. Someone out there must know of the gentleman. Well kept, lots of records, no rust (despite tons of salty winter roads out there I'm sure), and God knows what else I have yet to discover. I continue to find "upgrades" that have been done to this '86 Targa; turbo valve covers, short shifter, lots of options (factory), etc.
Maybe I have the car of some of you's guy's friend?  Barry, you there?

Sorry to see that from a member, totally inappropriate. Next time just click that red triangle and report his Butt
 Anyways, back to topic: Yeah if his a longtime PCA, then you can rest assured he would not if helped drive her on salted roads, you lucky. My POS was simply a moron, an offense to morons.

No problems.
I am amazed at how clean this car has proven to be. No signs of wrecks, no dirt piled up anywhere, no rust; the man obviously took great care of it. STILL has less than 70K, and I've owned it for almost 5 years; put over 15K on it myself by now, too. I do wonder about the guy, maybe will never know.....just thought maybe someone was buddies with him or something; hope he's OK. |

That's neat. (referring to OP) I cobbled together a history from scant records, carfax and the last PO who treated her right. Title changed a bunch of times, but I think it may have been administrative moves judging from the short durations of "ownership" - possibly in some sort of dealership limbo?
Anyway, the original manual was still there with the persons name - and with some investigation (not stalking), I found their occupation and possible location. I really don't know if they'd care to hear from me tho'.

Hey, sounds like a legit gripe, tomphot...no problem. Wish you had not had the problems. I only had to deal with fixes resulting from "age" (not me, the car, lol) and not too many, really. Love the car.
