Guest GHetland Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 HiI am from Norway, and I am an owner of a 59 Plymouth Sport Fury. My problem is that the VIN tag belongs to a 1959 Plymouth Savoy.In the 70's a man bought the Savoy, imported a Sport Fury from Belgium or Holland to Norway and swapped the VIN tag, probably to save import taxes. In those days it was kind of legal. I would like to know the original VIN tag of this car. Is there a register somewhere to help me? There is a few things that can help me, on the back lid there is a dealer sign: "Baugher Waynesboro" and there is an original sign on glove compartment With the name "Marcie K. Semones" This sign came only on the Sport Fury models. I think the engine are original, but I have to look for the serial number.Anyone out there who can help?I apologise my bad English, but this is not my native language Best regardsGunnar Hetland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty_OToole Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Can you track down the man who swapped ID plates in the 70s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlLaFong Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Marcia K. Semones was living in Waynesboro, Virginia in 1994. She was born in 1926, so it is unlikely that she is still alive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GHetland Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I don't think so. He was not registered as an owner of the car. I have some names, but I have not been able to track him down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GHetland Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Thank you. It was information of historical interest. I wonder how this car ended up in Europe. What about the dealer? Is it still open? Do they have a register where they can track the sale? I don't expect that you can give me any answer on these topics, but the questions popped up. Is there any register of Plymouth's linked up to engine serial numbers and VIN tags somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
