1978 Camaro Ownership History Research
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I need help piecing together the full chain of owners for my 1978 Z28 Camaro, all the way back to the very first person who drove it off the lot. I’m specifically focused on ownership history—performance specs and restoration details can stay for another day.
Here’s what I can give you up front: a handful of titles, one insurance card, and a couple of old registration slips. They cover only part of the car’s life, so there are still several gaps to fill. Your job is to pick up the trail from there, making use of DMV archives, state title searches, classic-car registries, local newspaper ads, club forums—whatever reliable sources can confirm each transfer of ownership.
Deliverables
• A chronological ownership timeline ending with the original owner’s name, address at time of purchase, and purchase date
• Copies or scans of every document you uncover (titles, bills of sale, registrations, period classifieds, etc.)
• A brief methodology note explaining the sources you tapped and any dead ends you hit
Accuracy and verifiability matter more to me than speed; I’m fine if a record takes extra digging so long as the evidence is solid. Let me know how you’d approach the search and roughly how long you expect it to take once you’ve seen the documents I already have.
