I have a 1966 and a 1972 Jaguar. Both were shipped from the factory to Bangkok and sold new in Thailand. I would like to find the name of the original owners, just so I know more of the history of the cars. The log books show the date of first registration and the original registration number. Unfortunately, both log books have changed, probably several times, over the 40+ years and they do not show the name of the original owner. Jaguar factory records show the original dealer in Bangkok, but not who purchased the car. Neither dealer is still in business. Has anyone got any experience of trying to find the name of the first owners from Land Transport Dept records? Thanks for any help on this.

40 years in Thailand emm, err ! I understand your passion but really i would say this is only going to turn out like a needle in a haystack.

Best start go to LTD and ask do forty year old pre computer records still exist .

Most likely Chavalit, he bought 15 Jags on a General's Salary.
