Locate my 1968 Barracuda Formula S VIN# BH29H8B412316

i love threads like these and nothing warms my tiny black heart more than reacquainting a long lost love.

but for the love of all that is holy why does NOBODY looking for their car include information?!??

it's like we have to pry even the basics out of people.

every little, tiny piece of information you can provide-- no matter how insignificant you may think it is, may be the key to finding what you're looking for.

start here:
who- your name
what- the car and the vin, maybe some description (ie: originally B5 i painted it hemi orange)
when- time frame, the more info here the better
where- locations, names, businesses
why- this is kind of fluid it could be the reason you sold or are now looking for it, or both!

in addition to that, any research or leads you've uncovered or last known whereabouts: i sold the car to Easy Lou in 1973 he was working at the stop and rob on the corner of 5th and main, he sold it to Big Wendy's baby daddy some time in the early 80's, and the last time i saw it was outside the Wet Beaver Saloon in BFE colorado in 1994 1/2, it was still mostly hemi orange with some primer in the quarters and on cenerline wheels. my friend Dirty Larry said he thought he saw it parked behind The Lumber Yard a few times in the early 2000's. it had a hood scoop and weld racing rims at the time.

telling the story of your car and all the dumb, little details-- it had a "**** happens" smiley face sticker on the inside of the glove box-- can frequently jump start somebody's memory and set you on a path to more clues.

good luck in your search!
Calm down Hero. It's Friday...ease back on the booger sugar a little bit...but you are 100 percent right on. You can't see the vin number from a car that might be in your neighbor's garage or on the side of the road. The big block Formula S certainly narrows it down quite a bit. To the tune of what? around 1,270. The stuff you can see from a distance that hopefully has not changed is important. Color, stripe kit, wheel style is a great place to start if you can't find it on a net search by VIN. If a guy was close enough to see the smiley face sticker in the glove box at one time...that would be the memory jogger for sure!
