Seeking dad's '69 GT500

[michshelbyguy]

Hello--  I am checking to see if my dad's 1969 GT500 has been registered with SAAC.  He bought it new in April 1969 from Northwestern Ford in Milwaukee, and sold it in 1974.  It was an Acapulco Blue hardtop.  My dad is still alive, and if it's feasible, I would like to surprise my dad next summer by traveling and reuniting him with his car.  To be honest, while my dad does have great stories of his five years of ownership, it's not like he's particularly wistful about it nor does he regret selling it.  However, I think the current owner would enjoy hearing from my dad, and given the opportunity to see his Shelby again I think the fond memories and reminisces would flow.  Plus, my dad retained some of the paraphernalia from ownership; I would have to convince my brother to give that up, but I would be fine reuniting it with the car since I have no recollections of the car (it was sold two years before I was born).  Any help the SAAC members can provide would be greatly appreciated.  Car's VIN is 9F02R481115.  --Marshall

It's a great story. Hope you find it soon.  I purchased a 68 Shelby. I reunited it to first owner's brother last summer.
