I remember talking to Thomas at Chrysler historical and he said there was a mountain of paperwork to get through and even though most of it is irrelevant to build records you never know what we will find. Is he still around because he said he also worked at the Australian assembly plant and still had relatives here (I'm in oz) .
I also remember talking to the late and great Daniel Banker who had a friend in some department which had access to vin records for automotive insurance fraud cases.Daniel said the guy looked up the vin of his cars and they were on file (illegally) as they should only be accessed if directly relating to a case.
I told this to Thomas at the time and said surely Chrysler historical could call back vin info from this database and he said it would release private names of who ownedthe cars and then its intruding the privacy act .
All the best Frank
