Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP33203) and 8 other sources
Jose Guadalupe Gonzalez, aged 38, was last seen on April 16, 2004, in Houston, Texas, specifically in the Greenspoint area. On the day of his disappearance, Gonzalez was with two individuals, Mauro Escobar and Silvia Perez. The group was last seen at a Wendy's restaurant, and Gonzalez was reported to be carrying a substantial amount of cash with him, planning to purchase farm equipment. The vehicle they were using, a blue or gray 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe, was found a few days later, stripped and abandoned in a wrecking yard in Humble, Texas.

Gonzalez, a Mexican national, was described as 5'11" tall, weighing about 180 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. He had notable distinguishing features, including a removable lower dental bridge and scars on his abdomen and arm. He was last seen wearing a blue and orange t-shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes. Despite thorough investigations, neither Gonzalez nor his companions have been heard from since, and foul play is suspected in the case. All three individuals’ disappearances remain unresolved, leaving their families and authorities still searching for answers.

The case has continued to raise concerns and efforts from groups like Texas EquuSearch, but no significant leads have emerged since the discovery of the abandoned vehicle.
