what you are talking about is exactly what happens all the time when you daily drive a mopar.
People often wonder how I am so good at finding cars...........most of the time the cars find me because everywhere I go people like to tell me how their neighbor's uncles dogs' brother had a car exactly like mine except with a 440 hemi :realcrazy:
I have to DD a mopar because they are the only wheels I have ...my newest car now is a 75......I guess I could run out and buy a new car, but WHY :p
I have had to listen to a lot of stories that account for time that I will never get back, but a lot of times people will start talking and mention where they saw one that looks "exactly like my car". Some leads are goose chases but a lot of leads have turned up good cars and some were under my nose and I never realized it until that grocery store parking lot chat pointed me in the right direction.
