Ah ha! I only say that because there was no car built at that time that matched her recollections. You just bumped up my confidence rating to 99%.

When she catches up, I can tell her how to track it down.

Car can not be a GT500KR, do to information provided in photographs.

Dingwall Ford sold 14 new cars in 1968 according to Shelby Club records.

They only sold one white, convertible to Roy J. Merlo (Windsor, Ontario, Canada). It was Vehicle Identification Number 8T03S173645-01995.
This car was an automatic transmission car.

We believe: Its most likely this car was purchased "used" from Dingwall Ford by the Facebook poster's father.

This car was in Indiana per the Registry, but was sold circa 1991. More information might be available.

This information is a collaboration of Mr. Paul Orr, The SAAC / Vinny Liska and Coralsnake. Also assisting forum member "KR Convertible"

It did not come from a Facebook Group, Barrett-Jackson, Marti Autoworks, The Canadian Ministry, Shelby American, a private investigator or any insurance companies.
Those are all great resources, just not for finding lost cars.

Lisa Reia reached out today with a couple of new pictures. I think I see an automatic shifter in the first picture.

Please reach out if you have any leads.
