I have been trying to locate previous owner(s), where my truck started out it's life, etc. Any help would be appreciated.  | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | isn't some magic place keeping track of vehicle ownership over the life of the vehicle - the only way you'd find that info would be doing the legwork yourself, via state registrations where that's possible, or tracking back from the person you bought it from, if they know who they bought it from, etc

Some states purge records if there is inactivity ( 10 years or more in California ) no non ops or being registered... Fires were also a culprit years ago for files being destroyed...
Would states DMV give out that kind of personal information ?
I would think the best way would be word of mouth research, ask the person who you purchased your truck from where they got it from and work backwards as red58 stated... With any luck you might even get some cool history or stories by talking to previous owners...
tobin1959, good luck in finding your trucks history... If you come across some good stories or history post them...
