keiser31 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) Found this on the WPC Club Facebook page: My Dad's been a long time WPC member from Atlantic Canada, we've been in search of his 1951 Dodge Wayfarer Sportabout Convertible that he restored in the late 70's and ended up selling at auction in the early 80's to help fund his newly started business off the ground. The car went to Saint John New Brunswick after he sold it and a few years later crossed the US border into Maine. Dad happened to run into a guy at Owl's Head Maine a bunch of years ago with pictures of the car in a photo album, turned out he had owned the car at some point, Dad had gotten his contact information but lost in somewhere along the way. Any help in locating the car would be greatly appreciated! We have the original bill of sale in hand so we'll have no trouble confirming if it's his old car. Picture from back in the day, I'm the littlest guy.... 35 years ago! lol Edited August 12, 2016 by keiser31 (see edit history) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are more pictures of the car back when Dad had it, Dad bought the car in New Jersey from the fella in the red/orange sweater that's with the car in the last picture with the tow bar all hooked up and ready for the 700 plus mile trip home. Thanks everyone for the advice.......The search continues! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
