I have done this 3 times so far. In one instance I even hired a guy who specializes in such.
Overall, they have been good experiences. As already stated one particular owner wanted to know how much I paid for it and then went on to say how he couldn't afford to own it now. He was a little crusty but still was kind enough to share important details about the car
I have only been able to receive a few old pictures but nothing more. I didn't go into it with the expectation I would find POP, old books etc.. but was hopeful to document the conversations via email and add such to any other documents I had.
Im sure like many on this board it is part of the thrill of having these cars and trucks. Many times I feel like a little kid finding something that no one else could and then being able to tell the story of my findings.
Have fun with it!
