1939 Vauxhall I type[edit]
Charles who is the owner of the 1939 Vauxhall I type. I am trying to find him as my father and built the car from chassis up in the late 80s and I'd like to purchase it back. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.24.170.225 (talk) 19:03, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
- I do not know which car you mean. Do you mean this one? Otherwise please tell me which one you mean by providing a fuller description or (which would be better still) a link.
- I do not know who owns the car in this picture. I think, from the date and the background, that I must have photographed it at Woburn (somewhere between Bedford and Milton Keynes and just off the M1) in the parklands surrounding the stately home at an oldtimer show which, in those days, was an annual event at Woburn over the first bank holiday weekend in May.
- From this website I just found that the car is still registered for road use in the UK. That means the owner's identity (or at least the identity of the "registered keeper") will be known to the car tax office in Swansea known affectionately as the DVLA. However, unless they think you're a policeman I don't think they're allowed to tell you. Since it looks well maintained and is older than most people still alive, it may well also belong to someone who is a member of a Vauxhall enthusiasts' club. You might check out the Vauxhall owners' Club. Even if they do not know the answer to your question about the ownership of whichever Vauxhall it is that interests you, they may very well be able to suggest someone else whom you should ask.
