I posted these photos a while back, but still haven't been able to figure out who owns the property, storage building, or cars. Anybody in North Alabama who might have some insight into who owns this stuff, feel free to contribute. It's in the Owens Cross Roads/ New Hope area.

interrogate the chicken... he knows something..

Well, you got close enough for a photo, why didn't you get some VIN numbers? Get'm take it to your DMV if they'll give you the info or a peace officer and have them run the numbers for an owner. Perhaps that'll give you a clue.

Because Privacy laws will not allow it.

Try the town hall tax collector with the address of the property in hand.
They know who owns what.

Shouldn't you be able to get tax information on-line? I can get NC info like that (I know it doesn't necessarily mean other states can)

he does seem kinda cocky

Google maps gets some good resolution down to being able to see houses, etc. Can you narrow the address/location down any more with a cross road or nearby roads, your info is too large an area.

I'd knock on a door or 2 if this place is that close, before I go all 'magnum PI'

but seriously, that chicken... he knows...

that was funny as shit, btw!

Go with the peace officer buddy approach, quick and completely deniable. You'll be on a wild "chicken" chase any other way. The owner of the building or property may not be the owner of the vehicles.

isn't there a house across the street, maybe they know who owns it. good luck!

Posted by: schreiber Aug 20 2009, 11:35 AM

there is. i've spoken to the neighbours, and they say a fella comes out every few months, but they couldn't tell me anything more about who he was

Posted by: blitZ Aug 20 2009, 11:51 AM

Leave a large note on one of the cars, maybe he'll call you.

Chances are that the only car that's actually registered to the guy is the 911.

If thats outside, I wonder what he has inside ? If its around Decatur AL I may know someone that has a 914 stash there.

You referring to pilothyer (Jerry)? I spoke to him for the first time this week, and he mentioned he had a stash - which reminded me of this little group I found. I too, am curious about what's inside that building.

*If anyone is curious, try plugging these into Google Maps: 34.56098,-86.455038

Take one home with you and see who calls.........

Posted by: schreiber Aug 20 2009, 12:49 PM

i've considered it

Posted by: tat2dphreak Aug 20 2009, 12:54 PM

yea, and history tells us that just "rescuing" a 914 from it's place of residence always works out well

post over at the other site for help are any prototypes?

Posted by: schreiber Aug 20 2009, 01:14 PM

yeah now that i think about it, one of them had VIN #914114
