If Paul owned the car Curry the lawyer would have to file in probate for legal title.
He probably did. Then sold it in the lien auction to Ann.
If Paul owned CSX2049 and Curry didn’t use probate its still Paul’s car.
Or his heirs.
Can you check probate records? Everything Paul legally owned would be listed.
He was kinda young to have will.
All good possibilities. Yet the investigation performed back in 1980 by USC Cowboy's expert, Lance Coren, who was at the time an insurance recovery expert with access to the CA and other state's DMV - including records that were't computerized, via a "hand-search" - turned up only Ann Abiden and Lanse Haselrig as listed owners. Coren further stated in his letter (see my post, #55) that Abiden is shown as the original owner, having purchased 2049 in 1963 and sold it in 1967. Some of his dates and details are off, but he apparently located the same printed DMV records I have presented previously.
