Brian Joe Page was 16 when he disappeared after a house party in Salem, Oregon. He attended the gathering on southeast State Street with his sister and two friends on the night of January 11–12, 1975. In the early morning hours of January 12, Brian and a friend named David were listening to music; Brian drove David’s 1962 turquoise Volkswagen Bug, Oregon plate 7P3626. After David reportedly took LSD and left the house during a bad reaction, others urged Brian to follow him; that was the last time anyone in the group saw Brian.

Around 5:00 a.m. that morning David was arrested for stealing a car from a dealership and speeding down State Street. He remained under the influence and later said he had no memory of what happened to Brian. The case was initially handled inconsistently between Portland and Salem authorities and was treated as a runaway, a theory Brian’s family rejected. Over the years the family has provided DNA samples and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children released age-progressed images, but neither Brian nor the turquoise Volkswagen Bug has been found.

Does anyone have information about Brian’s last known route, the Volkswagen Bug with plate 7P3626, or contacts from that Salem circle in January 1975?
