“Help me if you can…”

09/09/09 Maybe today will be the day we’ll get a break in the case of the missing Beatles car. Can you help?

With today’s release date of the new The Beatles Rock Band game and Apple Corps Ltd. release of The Beatles’ remastered catalog, perhaps something will come of all the Interconnectedness of the day.

The former limousine used by the Beatles in the mid-1960’s, is now currently owned by Rod Pitman of Portland Oregon, who reports that it was stolen in 1983 in Arizona and has been missing since then. It may have sighted in 2007 at a local classic car show, near Pittsburgh, PA.

The details of the car are as follows: 1965 Austin Vanden Plas Princess Saloon, UK Registration Mark FGO 586C, Serial number VDM4 16087.

Pitman, Executive Producer of Hempsters, recalls the first Beatles 45 record he owned was “When the Saints Go Marching In”. He’s been an avid Beatles fan ever since and wanted to purchase a piece of Beatles history when he bought the Princess Saloon more than two decades ago with plans to restore it.
