Default Hello, world! I'm on the search for my first car! Monte-Carlo SS 1987 with T-Tops

I'm looking for my very first car, a 1987 Monte Carlo SS with T-Tops. I've tried everything from getting a CarFax report a few years ago, to vigorously searching on Craigslist for her. It's been 15 years since I've seen her; I'm 32 now and I was 17 when I had to let her go. I want to return back to those days with my T-Tops off, just driving carefree and go back to a time when I was untouched by the world.*

When she left me she had an Edelbrock air cleaner, chrome valve covers, exhaust headers, air shocks in the back, and a Pioneer radio. Her interior was gray and her exterior was silver, but that could've changed since I last saw her. I know it's not much to go on, but I'm at a time and place in my life where all I need is something to hold on to.*

Here's the VIN# 1G1GZ11GXHR112939 if any of you could help me... It would mean the WORLD if someone could help locate my Monte Carlo... Even if I could just know WHERE she is.

Hi Motorhead & Welcome to the MCF
Wish you good luck in finding your former Monte Carlo.
Do you want to buy it or just know about it.

Check the below site & see if it helps...Good Luck

How can you locate a vehicle using its VIN




CLick above link
It's public information and you can probably find the last registered owner of that car. ... How can you find the owner of a vehicle using its VIN number?

Thanks! I'll check that publicdata site later. I'm wary of giving up my credit card info, though...

If I could buy her back, I'd be beyond ecstatic! If not, just knowing if she's still around... She meant so much to me.

Welcome to the site. What part of the country do you live in? Have you tried placing wanted ads in any type of car magazines. Also I know your looking for your specific car and i love the story youll have if you find it, but, it may not be an option, it may have been wrecked or could be rotting in a field somewhere. Have you considered buying a different 87 with t-tops. Either way good luck in your hunt.

Default Here's Carly!

Here are some pictures of Carly, my Monte. If anyone has any knowledge of where she is, I remain hopeful...










I know I took a while to respond, but time flies.
