They prob sold it at the Auctions and you wont be able to find the new owner due to the privacy act.
With the Reg. No. you could find out the engine and chassis number and locate it that way but again the privacy act would get in the way unless you know some in the know or have connections

thought that might be the case. neither i doubt would have gone through the auctions. one was an xy gt, the other was a restored 53 mainline runnin a hot 302w. thats the main one i'm after. nice ride it was. i'll post a pic up soon, it has more sentimental value. as 90 percent of peoples cars are here. lol

Always has been, they don't private sale, they don't keep it, they take, they sell, they re-coup what money they can.

Oh ok, well thats a different story
 Still not much hope of finding it though, if the guy still uses it for his boat try the marina on a Saturday arvo on a nice day, ask around, the ute sounds a little unique so some one might know.

You could try contacting the local area's newspaper and see if you could pop some sort of ad in or something along that line.
Sounds far fetched but that did work for a friend who was looking for her grandfather's old car. All they had was a photo, description and the original number plate. Good luck
