Searching for lost 1951 Hornet
Back in 1977 I regrettably sold my '51 Hornet in a weak moment. I kept in contact with the person and repeatedly reminded him that if he ever sold it to ask me first. As you figure, I lost contact with him. Years later when I located his widow, she told me that he had sold it not 6 months after I'd last asked him about it back in 1982. She didn't remember who bought it other than it was a large collector from Calif, who told them to look to see it in the movies. Mystery is that I can't find that it was ever registered in Calif and it is still listed here in Pa as registered to the person who sold it in 1982.
I asked Bill Albright's son but he said they didn't have records back that far.
It was dark green the last I saw it and it has the rare twin-H oil bath air cleaners.
So, if anyone finds a '51 Hornet 4 door sedan with the VIN # 7A23957 please let me know at

Thank you,
Rick

You should definitely check with Charlie Woodruff, since you have the serial number. I think he has over 600 cars on his registry at this time.0
