The current owner of 2049 is indeed Lanse Hasselrig. He bought it from Ann Abiden. He is partners in the car today with Rick Wesselink, as Hasselrig lacked the funds to repair/ restore the car on his own. As for the 2008 registry, apologies for the mis-information. We were given a very thorough report on the car by an individual who worked for the FBI and performed DMV research, and he submitted his report shortly before the 2008 book went to print. We altered what we thought we knew based on his assertions, absent sufficient time to double-check his report. What none of us knew at the time was that said individual had a brain tumor that was rendering rational thought impossible for this individual. And he had an agenda which included an effort to subvert the car's true history in favor of an acquaintance who wanted to purchase a clone and have it legitimized. We have since corrected every bit of data.
