Several of us local 914 owners have noticed an abandoned silver 914 in the empty parking lot of an empty commercial building off Highway 50 and Hazel Avenue in Orangevale. The car has a solid body, a rough interior, and the owner is clearly trying to get or keep it running. There are new heat ducts in one trunk and new spark plug wires in the interior, as well as a couple quarts of oil...
So here is the question, does anyone know who owns or owned
VIN# 4722918710?
Here are some pictures. We can help you if you speak up!

One more, enough leaves land on it and maybe the cops will not see it!

Can't you run the vin through DMV and see who owns it?
Looks like a nice car...is the parking lot posted with a tow service? I'm not suggesting to call. If it disappears one day, you know maybe where to look. Maybe call the city or tow yard and find who owns the lot and talk to them....they may have a clue. How long has it been there?
Is the registration current? You can get the info of the last registered owner from the DMV. You need it to send a registered letter to the owner to let them know you intend to take possession of there car if it was abandoned.
After a certain period of time (a month?) it becomes the property of the landlord (maybe... I think..). I would send letters to everyone who can be tracked down.... hopefully get a response and make a bargain for the car.
Ok guys, I'll work on it and let you know.

Crisis averted with two gallons of gas and some jumper cables. Apparently, he thought it couldn't be fuel since the guage said 3/4 tank. I also gave him a spare sender I had that moves freely...
How about leaving a note on it?
Great, did you invite them into this sandbox?
LOL
Good Job, Inspector Columbo
Okay, so, details?
You contacted the owner, and the 2 of you got the car running? Then what?
I am glad that this panned the way that it seems to have. I was seeing visions of the #4 drama lama starting again.
