My Dad can't remember who he sold car to back in 1963 , He remembers seeing car for sale at county speed shop back in 70's , that speed shop is closed down...

Someone has to have records. Any idea who owned it? You could call that person.

Jerry...

This is a long shot...

Any chance he still has an old registration..with a vin on it?

If so you could always carfax it...maybe you could get a location on it like a City or state?

Maybe an old license plate...and go to the secretary of state for a history? Maybe if they come up with anything...ask them if....theyd be willing to contact the current owner to contact you?
