Hey all,
As I begin the restoration of my Spyder here soon, it got me thinking about the first time I restored it and was able to show it to the original owner at a local 50's drive-in in Indianapolis. The day he bought the car and his name are still on a sticker on my dashboard using one of those old embossing sticky tapes (can't remember the proper name for this stuff). I'll post a pic of the sticker later: says "John McBride 05/05/78". I've long since lost contact with him, and wondered if there was anyone here on this forum who was "really good" at tracking people down. The original owner's name was John McBride and lived and worked in Indianapolis "at least" until the late 80's when I saw him last. His place of employment (and retirement) was Allison's Transmission (formerly referred to as Detroit Diesel - Allison). He had an actual Indianapolis address, but there are many John McBride's unfortunately. Does anyone know any good trick to finding someone like this?
