Subject: Looking for a car's history
Hello forum members!

I'm turning to you with little hope of help, still, I have now idea who else to ask. A friend of mine has been the proud owner of a 1936 LG45 for many years. Recently, he's applied for a FIVA certificate because some events are starting to ask for one. However, he was denied because he wasn't able to provide:
- a "Heritage Certificate" (The FIVA guy had no idea where he might obtain one, however, he keeps insiting on it)
- the car's complete, extensive history (according to him, this should be about 10-20 pages in writing)

I think it's a rather hopless case, still, I'm trying to find someone who might now about his car's history. That's what I know:

The car (Chassis Nr 12083/ Engine Nr. LG 45/185/S1) probably used to be a Saloon and, according to the last owner was turned into a 4-seater Team Car in the mid 1940s. The current owner bought it from an Irishman in Beaulieu in 1995 and brought it to Austria. The car then had white on black numerplates with the reg. nr. COF 752.

Does anyone know anything about this car or its previous owners?

Thanks for your help,
dani
