Alrighty, so I got more info: It was a 68 GT500, Acapulco blue and was actually purchased in New Hampshire, not Maine at Nashua Ford. It had No A/C, and no power steering. He said the no P/S was Shelby's mistake and he was told they would pick it up from him and install it but he didnt want to waste the time. Also, he said the clutch was a POS and the spring mechanism never worked and half the time he had to use his toe to pick the clutch pedal back up after shifting. He retains no paper work on it and does not know the VIN.

What can we do with that info?

His name is Steve Sprague. I am trying to do this without his knowledge because I think it would be a cool thing to surprise him with if I can find it, and if I cant I probably just wont mention it. Are there not records available showing who bought each car? From there I think it should be as simple as using the VIn to do the rest, no?

Hello there, over the years my stepfather has spoken about his GT500 as one of the fonder memories of his lifetime. He loves recalling dragging anything of the day that pulled up next to him at a red light. Although I don't hold much hope that the car still exists given it was originally a Maine car and he drove it hard 365 days a year, I would like to try and figure that out and share with him whatever story it had after his time with it. I know it was sold by a dealership somewhere in mid-coast Maine and of course his name, but I dont have much detail past that. I am not even exactly sure the year, it was either a 67 or a 68 I believe. I also know he traded in his 65 GT350 for it.  Is there anyway to extrapolate from that to find out more about the car and where it might be if it is still around? Thanks.
