You've found it - The Lost Car Registry! If you're looking to find a car you wish you hadn't sold, you've come to the right place. We're a free, open forum dedicated to helping reunite people with a former beloved vehicle. While my personal interest is in reuniting musclecars of the '60s and '70s with former owners - owners who may have sold their cars prematurely and have since regretted it - this site is open to ANYONE interested in finding ANY former vehicle.

Surely you've heard someone say, "If only I hadn't sold that car! I wonder what ever happened to it?" or "I really miss my first car. I'd do anything to get it back. I wonder if it's even still out there." Perhaps you're the one who might have said it! If that sounds like you, take comfort, look around and start posting.
