Default Does anybody know 85-0089?

I am the current owner of '85-0089 and I am trying to piece together the history of the car and hopefully get in contact with the previous owners. I am just curious to know more about the car, what its life has been like and who has owned it.


Here is a picture of the car:




and here are a few interesting stickers that were on it when I bought it:






and here are some of the details I know or have heard about the car:

- sold in July of 1985 through Crystal Ford in Silver Springs, MD.
- original owner unknown.
- 2nd owner was Ken Harwood in WV.
- I believe the car lived for many years at Summit Point race track in WV which may explain why it was never registered for license plates for a few consecutive years.
- 3rd owner was Jay Fitts in PA - purchased in 2000.
- Someone called Greg Gordo or Gordon was familiar with the car.
- 4th owner was Steve Timbers in Ontario Canada.
- Steve purchased the car at the 2003 Carlisle Ford Nationals.
- there was a minor accident or some other reason to replace the airdam and do minor paint work on the hood and one fender before Steve bought it.
- Steve made a few mechanical mods in 2003 but ended up leaving the car untouched for almost 6 years until I found it.
- I purchased the car from Steve in May of 2009.

If anyone has any information about the 1st owner, or anything about the car along the way to becoming mine, please PM me. I would love to get in contact with anyone from the car's past that can confirm it's history and provide any details about this car.

Thanks.
