It happens.

Recent case from earlier this month, within minutes after I asked about it, one of his pals knew the owner of the car. Details at Blue AAR Cuda at Spring Fling - UPDATE, engine now with car. | Moparts General | Moparts Forums

that's a great story, hats off to you both for your efforts.
I've often wondered the same thing, but talk about your 'needle in a hay stack'.

I found my Challenger's 383 after about a 20 year separation.

With that number, block was out of a '72, probably an e body.
Thanks for posting, hopefully an owner will find you.

Yeah, well that one was very public.

It happens more often than most people would think.

So, IF there is a Registry for your make & model, please consider registering?

Same if you have an item from a car type that there is a real registry for.
