Looking for my fathers old '68.

So here goes nothing, I'm Trying to find my fathers old car. dont have a ton of info on it but trying to find out what happened to the car and possibly try and buy it.

1968 442, Holiday coupe, Hurst...

What It was like when he sold it in early 2000's:
Sold to a guy in the Maryland/Delaware area
painted black when he got it, but was originally green.
green interior.
had a rocket 350 in it but came with a 400 block also
Hurst 4spd car
Holiday coupe
Cragar mags,
Possibly rear ended due to tray over rear window being mashed up
tons of electrical issues
had some black interior parts that came with it

Not sure if true but what I have been told:
guy that it was sold to was in the military so it could be anywhere...
last I heard it was in a small town in Delaware being raced (early 2000's, cant confirm this...)

anyone know of any cars that match what I'm describing? I know its a long shot, will upload pics if i can find some.

Thanks -R

I've dug around trying to find it. Don't want to ask him since it is going to be a surprise, if I can find the car that is... I'll look around some more over the next few days.

Good luck in your quest. Cool idea for a surprise. As stated above, consider finding one that's close also.
