    Hey all, long time no see! I made a post in the new member section back in 2016 when I was just a wee lad about getting my grandfathers 330 back to road ready and after way too many rainy days in a row here in California, made it a mission to locate the car as there was a family falling out and I completely lost tabs on it. This morning, I dug through the registry and found the car, which was sold to Gullwing Motor Cars in NY in 08/17 and then listed again by European Collectibles back here in CA just 3 months later, though I can't find the car in their sold archive so that could be a mistake. Either way, I'm just curious as to where the car resides today and if there's ever a chance that my mother and I will ever get to spend any time in person with it again. Thanks all and glad to be back!

    You should contact Gullwing and ask Peter.

    Sometimes he’ll buy cars cross country, but leave them there and have another dealer who is close list it for them (in this case possibly European Collectibles). Maybe he’d share some info with you.

    Thanks very much, I quite literally grew up in the car so this is huge to me!

    This is what I assumed with the whole multi-dealer thing being listed. I did shoot off an email to him this afternoon, we'll see what happens and if he can relay any info to me. Appreciate the advice, hopefully the internet will do its thing and I'll have some peace of mind back!

    Gullwing replied and said, "Thank you for inquiring but the car is sold."
    Guess he didn't actually read my message. Oh well, the search continues anyway.

    Thank you to all who have reached out, no final answers yet but definitely making progress and it's all thanks to you! I'll keep this updated and hopefully one day I'll have some pictures of the car in its current state to post here again!

    Thank you for reaching out on all accounts, I'm thrilled to know that the car is in such good hands!

    Also, thanks to the registry, I have spoken to the current owner and I'm happy to report that a reunion is already in the works - thanks all for your suggestions and help up to now, I'll update asap again!
