@@michaelweiland6751 when it comes to history on cars, the SAAC registrars only know details from warranty work and from what car owners report to them.
My dad had quite a few old Mustangs from the mid to late 60s into 1970 and I can verify the overheating issue...They all seemed to do it....I remember him buying a big aluminum radiator with dual electric fans for his lime gold 70 and it seemed to take care of the issue....You really couldn't put a ton of miles on those things esp as you got into the big blocks and 428's etc...To this day though I think the look of the 69-70 fastback Mustangs are amazing...They are pieces of art...PS My dad did not care haha he had 3 kids and he would cram us all in the backseat of those fastbacks which wasn't so bad when we were 4-6 years old...I remember having to take turns sitting on the "hump" If you have had one of those you know haha
It always helps if the VIN # is provided as that will sometimes jar someone's memory as to where it may have been and where it might be. It took me two years to find the original owner of my 1979 10th Anniversary Trans Am and then I lost touch with him. I found his (now ex) wife on FB and she reconnected me to him and I've been chatting with him on and off to keep in touch. In my case, I got lucky. I got copies of the previous titles from other owners that I found and from there, I was able to connect with the original owner. It wasn't easy, but it can be done.
@@weseisenschenkslostmusclec9123 I have it all documented in a scrapbook. Now that I have his e-mail address, it should be easier to keep in contact with him.
Surprised on these Shelby's and Mustangs that the Marti folks can't help out a bit. Maybe not tell you who owns it, but let you know how many reports have been issued for cars with like options. If there is a hit, maybe they could even act as an intermediary between the original owner and who has it now. Contact the current owner to see if they are interested in talking to the original owners. Of course they would do this for a price.
@alfee9411 every person that talked about having a car as a teenager says the same thing... "I worked all summer" sounds a lot better than I saved up 500 bucks and my parents paid the rest.
At least with the Shelby registry, this should be a slam dunk! Good luck man!

Yep! Sadly, not registered yet.
Great story. Question #1 would be “Have you checked SAAC Registry?” But that would have been a short interview.😅

Just like the other guys comment, this should be easy given the Shelby registry.

Congrats!! That had to be a thrill

rare and desirable are 2 different things.
Indeed they are, but when you find a car with both, that's the one to keep!
And neither comes into play when it comes to sentimental value.
Another search, nothing like what this channel claims to be in the intro.
Baddie
1750$ was 12k in today's money. Lot of money for a 14 year old. Kid was spoiled
But it was the 14 yr olds money ...far from spoiled
Sounds as if he worked A LOT
