Just wondering if there is any way of tracing previous owners of my 57 Cadilac just to see where it lived before if came over to the UK? Can it be done.. anyone got any ideas? Thanks, Colin

NO is the fairest answer. You will have to play the detective by asking the seller from whom he got the car and so on and so on!
With the car, you should have the US title if you are the first UK owner. The name on the title could be the one from the previous owner...
If you are doing a search in this forum about previous owner(s), you will see that's there is practically no answer to that kind of question.

I only know previous ownership from word of mouth and documents.  Anything else is a wild guest or a good story.
