FOUND!
Proud to report a success story.
I help run the lost and found page with Fred Ballard on the hipo mustang forum by keeping a database of vins people are looking for specifically, 65-67 hipo vins. A gentleman reached out to me, provided a picture of a vin stamped 289 motor to add to my database. It was a 6R09K vin so I contacted Howard Pardee (SAAC Registrar) who confirmed it belongs to a 1966 Shelby GT350. Mr. Pardee put me in contact with the GT350 owner (Damon) and I was able to link up the two parties.
This is why I keep a database. These wins are very rare but I'm a believer the more vins I record the higher the likelihood we can have more success stories like this.
Congratulations to the GT350 and hipo 289 owners tonight.
Merry Christmas!
That truly is a fantastic Christmas story
You da man !
Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to you and yours !
Awesome win. I have the original owners manual, warranty card and window sticker of a 64 1/2 Mustang I want to give to the current owner. Haven't found him yet....
