TR4/4A RHD TR4A in PA- Does anyone have any information about my old car?

Hello all,

In the early 1980s I became involved with a very rusty RHD TR4A that has spent most of its life in Pennsylvania. A diplomat brought the car to the USA originally. I also bought a LHD straight axle TR4A in very good condition. The cars' years were 1966 and 1967.

While I was overseas in the late 90s and early 00s my family gave the cars away to a man named Brian Schloff. A little while ago I managed to get in touch with Brian and he said that he doesn't remember a RHD TR4A and even though he kept detailed records of all the cars' VINs that passed through his hands he hasn't responded to me.

I'd really like to know where these cars are now. If anyone has any information I would be greatly appreciative. I'm willing to travel almost anywhere to see them.

Thank you for your help.

From someone passionate about Triumphs,
Sincerely,
Dave

I probably do have the VINs somewhere, but I don't have them with me now. I may have the titles too. Needless to say, I'm not happy with my family, and those documents would be with them (where the cars were located). There can't have been many original UK right-hand-drive TR4As in the USA, if there were more than mine. So I'd imagine that would narrow the field down SIGNIFICANTLY. The RHD was very rusty and I believe originally red (though I'm not positive). The LHD was definitely British Racing Green and with little rust.
