WBCCI Directory from 1967 Anyone?

[ts8501]

I just acquired a 1964 Safari that was shined by the PO. He does not exactly remember whether or not it had Red Numbers on it or not, but he thinks so. There is zero evidence remaining of any numbers. I found in the little paperwork that came with the trailer a letter dated 1967 to the then owner (I would suspect original owner). I know from the serial number that the trailer is Caifornia built, and the then owner in 1967 lived in San Pedro, CA. If I provide the name and address, does anyone have an old WBCCI directory (mid to late 60's) that they could see if this person was in the club? I would really love to know the original history of this Safari! Assuming I join the VAC, it would also be neat to see if the numbers are available, but that is getting ahead of myself.....

Thanks,
-Tim

Mike:

Thank you so much for finding the previous owners in the '67 directory! I am assuming that it is not OK to list their names and their WBCCI number, so I am not going to, at least not at this time. I do now have numbers that I could ask for, as Mike also found out that the number is not currently being used. I will also be trying to find the PO or relatives of the PO. I can even imagine having a picture of them with their then almost new AS! I am jumpin ahead of myself again. This is really cool! I am so glad that one letter was in the trailer, as I would have no other way to have found out through Mike that they were in the WBCCI!

Tim,

Glad I could help.As I stated in the PM,the number is not in the 2008 Directory.With that being said,the only way to find out for sure is to contact WBCCI Headquarters.

Good luck

I will contact the WBCCI HQ and find out!

Hi Tim: I just saw your reply to Mike and hoped that perhaps you could look up my dad's WBCCI number from your 68 directory. His name was Allen Webb on Dawn View Lane or Old Mill Trace in Atlanta or Marietta Ga. I can almost remember and think it may have been 35678 or close to that. Would be grateful if you could find it. Thanks! Jim Webb

Hi! I'm wondering if I give you a WBCCI number can you give me former owner info? I just bought it today and am interested in researching its history. I love it already!
