Trying to fill gap in History of my 69 GT500............

Hi. Vincent Liska will soon be publishing the 69-70 registry and I've hit a dead end trying to find out how my car (#480850) got from Michigan to So. Cal., somewhere in the Sept69 to Mar70 time frame. I've got docs from Lois Emlinger (great gal,RIP), Vincent, and Marti. Vin# indicates that this was a company"pool" car and, according to Vincent, was in the possession of Shelby exec Ray Geddes (maybe he drove it from Michigan to So. Cal). The original owner insists that his uncle, who owned a dealership in Taft, Ca., purchased it from Carroll Shelby/Shelby American in LA, but cryptic markings on a doc indicate that it may have come thru Cutter Ford (now Sunrise Ford) in Hollywood (I already tried dealing with Sunrise Ford-no luck) and, also, that's when Shelby American was shutting down. Time is running out and I've completely run out of ideas except to try and find someone that may have info on Mr. Geddes' whereabouts in that time frame. I see that Ray's daughter posts on this forum from time to time. Any constructive suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Curt

 

Thanks very much Bill. Will do. Curt
