DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO TRACK DOWN THIS CAR? AT ONE TIME, I REMEMBER AN ORGANIZATION CALLED "IN SEARCH OF MUSTANGS", BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THEY ARE STILL AROUND. THIS WAS MY FIRST MUSTANG, AND I WOULD LIKE TO BUY IT BACK. LAST SOLD IN YOUNGSTOWN, OHIO IN EARLY 1990's. HELP!

"In Search of Mustangs" isn't an organization, but rather a project intended to develop a database of all known Mustang door tag information through voluntary reporting. They eventually published two volumes based on their research, though the usefulness of the post-1967 data has now been largely usurped by Kevin Marti's acquisition of the Ford production records.

On the bright side, Volume 2 *does* list 8T02C118095, giving the last known owner as Timothy A. Marki of Ohio, though this could have been entered into the ISOM database anytime between 1984 and 1994, so it's hard to say how accurate or helpful it would still be. It does suggest that a registration search through the Ohio DMV/MVA might be in order, however.

Dave:

I have yet to see those books you refer to. By chance is my 67 Fastback in there? 7R02S138133

Thanks

Jeff

No, it isn't. Actually I was quite surprised to find "Napaman's" VIN listed, since the books contain only a very small owner or volunteer-reported sampling of surviving Mustangs.

Hey, can you still buy copies of those books, and are they still do any research on vin numbers(needing new info for their searches?-I think a few of us here wouldn't mind adding theirs)
