Tracking a GTHO

GTP 170 · 04-11-2008, 02:34 PM

Well i was chatting with my father the other day and he was telling some mates one of his old stories about a gtho a mate of his had.
So i thought id get on here and look into tracking down some details for him.
Yes i have tried to search, but to no avail.
Anyway it was a XY Phase III GTHO, build number #51, bought in WA and should be a plain brown without stripes or most badging.
Im interested in finding out if this car still exists and if so, if the owner is aware of the cars very unique history.
Does anyone have any advise on where i should start looking, or know anything of this car?
I fully respect that the owner may not wish the location etc of the car known but am mostly interested to see if it is still around.

I didnt know HO's had build numbers back then?
Unless its a former race car & raced as #51

Im not sure mate, he (my dad) told me it was number 51 and i assumed that meant build number?
Deffinately not its race number, although its funny you should mention that... wont give details in case the owner doesnt want it known.

If you PM me the vin i'll pass your enquiry onto the GT Historian who has all the HO vins on record. Ford didnt have build numbers for the HO's either.
